The Castlegar Minor Hockey awards banquet took place last Wednesday, April 12 at the Castlegar and District Community Complex.
It was a great success with 260 players, coaches, officials and parents in attendance.
Master of Ceremonies Dale Donaldson and CMHA parent group coordinator Paulette Lawczynski did a fantastic job of keeping the night and the ceremonies going smooth and without a hitch.
At this time CMHA would like to thank all businesses, community members and organizations for supporting Minor Hockey in Castlegar during the 2016-17 season.
