Tri-City Inline Hockey League recently held their annual meeting. Each January its Membership gathers to elect the Board of Directors that will serve for a period of one year effective immediately. The Membership elected Shane Nakamura as President, Michelle Alford as Vice President, Jennifer Proiette as Treasurer, Mandi Lane as Secretary, and Dmitriy Demidov as Director at Large.
Shane Nakamura Tri-City Inline Hockey League’s President stated, “I was one of the original players when TCIHL started its first season of play back in 1993. I was a 13 year old kid who fell in love with the sport and now, over 20 years and 7 kids later I’m back. This time it’s me and my children who are playing hockey and enjoying the same league that I helped start.
