Complete with skates and sticks, Booch family members played hockey Wednesday, May 20, 2020, at a parking lot near Cape Splash Family Aquatic Center in Cape Girardeau. Mother Maren Booch said hockey in the parking lot has become a regular activity for the family during the COVID-19 pandemic. “We were looking for a spot and as long nobody parks his car here, that’s a perfect spot so we do it almost every afternoon. Sometimes twice a day. When my husband’s home, he has to come with us too after dinner,” Booch said. “As long as it’s not raining, we’re here.”
