PUEBLO – Another chapter in the Pueblo Ice Cup rivalry is right around the corner.

The annual hockey game between the Pueblo Police Department and  Fire Department is meant to raise money for different programs that benefit kids in Pueblo.

Both teams were practicing Tuesday at the Pueblo Ice Arena in preparation for Saturday’s big game.

“You know, it’s a very competitive game,” said Officer Brandon Beauvais with the Pueblo Police Department. “It’s a lot of fun and we strongly encourage our sports fanatics that have never been to an ice hockey game to come check this out.”

The game is happening this Saturday at the Pueblo Ice Arena. The puck is set to drop at 3 p.m., but there will be a pre-game party starting at noon.
