Hockey players assist people-in-need with toys

Members of the North Okanagan Knights have teamed-up to make Christmas a little merrier for the less fortunate.

Cade Enns, Ethan Matchim and Jake Dubinsky from the KIJHL team based in Armstrong, dropped off toys to Cobs Bread in Vernon this week.

Cobs is conducting a toy drive and the Knights, led by Enns, decided to chip in and bring awareness to their community of Armstrong.

“I was thinking about the way things are going right now,” said Enns. “COVID-19 is on a lot of people’s minds and obviously no one is in a great spot right now. You have to sit and think about people that are maybe less fortunate and how it impacted their lives and how they need that extra help right now. Now as much as ever, is a great time to give back to the less fortunate and people who need it the most.”
