Dawson Kehrig and the Tisdale under 13AA lost the provincial final on April 6 in Nipawin against the Swift Current Bronco’s. They tied the series but unfortunately could not come out on top losing 5-2. Great season Dawson.
If anyone knows me, they know I come from Hudson Bay. Many locals like to joke with me about my Hudson Bay heritage. Obviously, its because they know how wonderful our town and people are. Another thing people know about me, is that I enjoy snowmobiling. Hudson Bay is currently in the semi-finals in the SledTown ShowDown. Currently Hudson Bay is up against Swan Hills, Alta. every day from April 5 to 17.
