The Advisory Board will work with the hockey club to build new business relationships, enhance the game night experience and expand the hockey club’s fan base.
“The formation of the Advisory Board is a collection of passionate and business-oriented individuals with deep roots in Kamloops,” said Governor, Tom Gaglardi. “We believe they will help our organization with strategic decisions in building greater partnerships within our community.”
The idea to create an Advisory Board came from the success of the Ownership Advisory Board that the Dallas Stars of the National Hockey League formed.
“The advice and guidance the Stars have received from business leaders in Dallas has been immeasurable,” commented Gaglardi. “We think we can create a similar model in Kamloops.”
