Fun for the Kids: Red Wings Street Hockey in West Michigan!
For the third year in a row, the Detroit Red Wings and Meijer have teamed up to bring some fun to kids this summer.
The Summer Hockey Tour consists of "hockey clinics" where kids are given lessons for one hour followed by a 30-minute street hockey game. The clinics are held in the parking lots of different Meijer locations, which spans eight lots. Red Wings representatives, coaches and local hockey players will be hosting the event.
This is for kids 7-12 and open to all skill levels, experience or not.
