Fort Frances is Hockeyville


Fort Frances is making a run to become Kraft's next Hockeyville.

Local resident Jonathon Glueheisen submitted the town's name in the annual contest to find Canada's most passionate hockey town and hopes resident will rally around it.

The winning town gets $100,000 in arena upgrades and the opportunity to host an NHL exhibition game.

The first step in winning will happen next month with participating communities seeking on-line votes to advance further.
