Kingston couple leads fundraising effort for new 'Rez Girls' 64 rink

A girls hockey team from Eabametoong First Nation may soon have a new ice surface to hone their skills on, thanks to a fundraising effort by a pair of Kingston fans.

Katie and Steve Koopman, who documented the Rez Girls 64 Wolves trip to Kanata to compete in their first-ever all-girls hockey tournament earlier this year, are working to raise enough funds to make a needed improvement to the team's rink in Eabametoong, also known as Fort Hope.
