Sports Shop Holidays, 2024 Review, & 2025 Outlook

With the holidays and hockey season coinciding, we made a trip over to the Sports Shop in International Falls and got to speak with Zach Mankas to talk how business has been going.

Speaking of Hockey season, that must be keeping him very busy with selling and servicing equipment.

Some such service that they provide being repairs to blades.

Steve also talks to us about an order he made for a bunch of bikes still being sold at the Sports Shop.

A fun fact about Steve Mankas is he’s a Bronco alumni.

He was also asked about his favorite memory from being a Bronco.

So what are some items he thinks people would be interested in at the Sports Shop?

With the cross country skis, he must be very grateful for all the snow.

In the spirit of Christmas, what was probably his most memorable gift received?

Finally, we’re given a review of 2024 as well as an outlook of 2025.
