Dear Editor:

The Columbia Valley Rockies deserve recognition for their hard work, both on and off the ice.

Racey Big Snake’s help with the J.A. Laird Elementary hockey program is incredible, as is the ongoing support of Rockies with the kids at Eileen Madson Primary in many capacities from obstacle courses to help with reading.

The Rockies players and coaching staff are a credit to our community in many other facets, which are too numerous to name.

We need to ensure we support these young athletes and the organization whenever we get the chance; perhaps on Saturday, December 14th against the Creston Thundercats at the Eddie Mountain Memorial Arena.
