A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT In celebration of Minor Hockey Week, and on behalf of the minor hockey executive, I would like to congratulate everyone who participates in our great game. This special section, published in conjunction with the Penticton Western News, features photos of all teams involved with our association. We take great pride in providing our youth with a safe and positive environment to enjoy their favourite sport. This season Penticton Minor Hockey turns 60. None of this would have been possible without the support of the community and our sponsors. Please take the time to visit the arena to cheer on our kids‌ and view some of the rich history that we are so very proud of. See you at the rink! Bruce Judd President, PMHA
