A fire in the West Fraser Centre on Saturday afternoon almost caused the Quesnel Kangaroos’ season opener to be canceled. The call of a fire came to the Quesnel Fire Department at approximately 1:00 pm, interrupting and cancelling a Quesnel Minor Hockey afternoon skate and training session. Concord Restoration was called and was able to get to West Fraser Centre promptly. The arena’s Building Manager and Maintenance Manager gave the go-ahead that the lobby and suppressed areas will be cleaned up in time. With the caveat that there will only be one washroom available for Men going to the Roos game.
