The Kamloops Storm’s annual Teddy Bear Toss game, proudly sponsored by unions from the Kamloops & District Labour Council, including IBEW 993, was a sold-out success! Union members joined the packed arena, cheering on the Storm as they scored their first goal in the first period, sending a flurry of teddy bears raining down onto the ice.

It was an incredible sight, showcasing the generosity and community spirit of Kamloops. Fans of all ages enjoyed the excitement, with Stormy, the Kamloops Storm mascot, energizing the crowd by banging the drum and snapping photos with fans. Santa Claus and his festive entourage also added to the holiday cheer, posing for pictures with kids throughout the night.

A huge thank you to everyone who came out and supported this amazing event. Your efforts make a real difference in the lives of those who receive these cuddly donations. Together, we showed the power of union solidarity and community connection!
