The official WRB label

10/27/99 The WRHL will release an official beer this Saturday at a Halloween gathering in Lenexa. The beer is called Wolf River Brew and is made in Hiawatha by a member of the league. The beer will be sold for $2.50 a bottle, and profits will go toward operational costs for the league. Officials believe that Wolf River Brew will make the WRHL the only hockey league with its own beer. The NHL has an official beer, but it is not produced or named after the league. Until a National Hockey Brew comes out, the NHL can play catch-up with the WRHL.
10/17/99 In a surprise twist to the WRHL off-season, it appears as though Damage Inc. will join the other three teams in searching for a new rink for the 2000 season. Although it is not official, the owners of the home rink for KC, All-American Sports, are pursuing a new building in order to offer roller hockey year-round. Sounds great, right? Unfortunately, if they make the move, the new building will not be ready for hockey until next July or later. The old building will not be re-opened if they do. Of course, Damage is in much better shape than three northern teams. There are some options for KC, but the situation in Hiawatha grows more dismal each season. Obviously, the interest is there; however, the league will always be on shaky ground in Hiawatha until an adequate rink magically appears.
