LEWI, LEWI: David Foulke, upper left, and Mike Pleau, upper right, unfurl a nylon “Lewi” logo on center ice at the Colisee while John Pleau, center right, Tony Pleau, lower right, and Gerry Pleau watch. “It used to take us 16 hours because we had to hand paint all of the logos onto the ice,” said John Pleau of Northeast Painting and Coatings. “Now it’ll take us eight hours with these nylon logos.” After the ice has been painted and logo laid down, an inch and a half of ice, or 150 laps with the Zamboni, will be put down in the next week before anyone can skate on it.
