Musketeers Hockey

The Girls Scouts attended a Musketeer Hockey event on Saturday, January 16th. This was an all day event, consisting of ice skating, getting a tour of the Tyson Events Center, and door prizes! We also got to stay and have supper (hot dog and pop) and watch the Musketeers play against the Indiana Ice... and meet some of players after the game for pictures and autographs!!! We had thirteen girls from our troop participate in this event -- and I believe every single one of them had FUN!!! Here are pics:
