The 43 players vying for a roster spot are divided into two teams (black and white) who will scrimmage once today, twice Thursday and twice Friday (among other on and off-ice activities) before returning back to Penticton on Saturday and heading into the Mountains for team building on Sunday (bear hunting?!).
The Vees open their four game exhibition schedule Tuesday in Merritt, and open the regular season on September 5th in Westside.
The Vees playing roster must be widdled down from 43 to 23 by the beginning of the regular season.
