Tired of all this snow? Need a place to frolic that's dry and warm?
Come play Floorball at the UAF SRC from 7-10 PM for the first time ever on 2 courts!
What is Floorball you may ask? It is hockey, but with plastic sticks and wiffle balls. It's great, trust me. You'll have a blast scoring banger goals.
