Join us for a great all-ages event in support of local charities
About the event
This event celebrates the lives and legacies of Ken Gill and Forrest Owens—two remarkable individuals who were beloved members of the greater Victoria firefighter communities. Their impact on those around them was profound, and to honor their memory, we are hosting the Ken Gill & Forrest Owens Memorial Hockey Tournament where local fire departments face off for charity.
The third annual tournament will be held at Wurtele Arena & Archie Browning Arena with finals held at Archine Browning.
This tournament's focus—beyond that of our fallen brothers and sisters—is our mental health as first responders and continued efforts in working towards our resiliency. This special event will unite friends, family, and hockey enthusiasts while raising funds for several community organizations.
The event is open to the public, friends and family.
