North American Pond Hockey Championship Returns to Lake Minnetonka

Players from the North American Pond Hockey Championship gather on the ice.
Pond hockey returns to the lake this month.

Don’t miss one of Lake Minnetonka’s favorite winter events—the North American Pond Hockey Championship. This year, the tourney returns January 16-19, and will benefit Wild player Jason Zucker’s #give16 cause. The tournament was founded by the DWB Memorial Foundation and offers local and regional players (pros and hobbyists alike) the chance to gather for a little pond hockey—a game that might be the most Minnesotan of all. In addition, the weekend includes other events, food, concerts and activities for kids and grown-ups. Teams can register for hockey games or bean bag; check out pondhockeylakeminnetonka.com for details and registration.
