“We are beyond excited to call the Tahoe Blue Events Center our home starting in October 2024. The arena is one of the best buildings we have seen and are sure our players and staff will feel the same way. Our partnership with OVG, TDVA, and the unwavering support of the community in our short time since making our announcement further cements our thoughts on why Lake Tahoe and the Tahoe Blue Events Center will be hockey central come next October.”
