Bragging rights were on the line Saturday morning when local police and fire crews dropped the puck for Canada91裸聊视频檚 pastime on Penticton91裸聊视频檚 outdoor rink.

RCMP officers from across the South Okanagan and Penticton Fire Department members kicked off festivities at the facility on Jan. 20, as thousands of locals and tourists alike gear up for BCHL All-Star Weekend.

A game between the first responders hadn91裸聊视频檛 taken place since 2015.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 great to be out there,91裸聊视频� said Sgt. Don Wrigglesworth from the Oliver RCMP, in between shifts on Saturday.

91裸聊视频淲e used to have an annual game, usually at Memorial Arena, and the trophy never really left the RCMP detachment because we kept winning it over and over,91裸聊视频� he added, with a laugh.

Police and fire crews played multiple games of three-on-three hockey Saturday, with the contests usually ending within one or two goals.

But like any exhibition outdoor hockey game, there91裸聊视频檚 always that million-dollar question: how do you decide who91裸聊视频檚 going to throw on the goaltender equipment and step into the crease?

91裸聊视频淲hoever is a police officer and can play goalie,91裸聊视频� Wrigglesworth replied with a laugh.

The game marked the first of many events set to take place in downtown Penticton on Jan. 20.

The UpperDek Vees 91裸聊视频� a team that coincidently sees Wrigglesworth as its coach 91裸聊视频� took to the ice right after the RCMP and fire crews91裸聊视频� game. The BCHL, meanwhile, brings its skills competition, alumni game and three-on-three tournament to the facility starting at noon.

Frost Fest, a brand-new winter festival at Gyro Park, will coincide with all BCHL-related events on Saturday.
