Back on the ice

The clean up is almost complete and user groups will soon be back on the ice at Kal Tire Place.

The Vernon multiplex flooded last week after a nearby water main broke, leaving the basement under several centimetres of water.

Cleaning crews have finished in the lower dressing room and hallway areas. Temporary flooring will be installed Thursday in preparation for the Vernon Vipers season opener this Saturday.

Environmental testing on the facility has been completed and preliminary results may be available by weekend. Staff at Kal Tire Place do not anticipate any concerns with test results.

Vipers were on the ice on Wednesday afternoon for practice and staff hope to have most user groups playing at Kal Tire Place starting later today.

The full cost of damage is not yet known.
