PRINCE GEORGE— The City is inviting everyone to welcome the Prince George Spruce Kings as they return from the National Junior A Championships.

Fans will hear from the Spruce Kings and have an opportunity to take photos with the players and their trophies.

It has been a historic season for the Spruce Kings. This is the first season a Prince George team won the Fred Page Cup (BCHL championship) or the Doyle Cup (B.C./Alberta championship).

The Spruce Kings advanced to the National Junior A Championship in Brooks, Alberta, but lost in the final to the host team.
