Colin Day
A Kamloops Blazers founder, who was at the helm for the franchise s highest highs as well as its lowest low, has died.
Colin Day, 70, passed away Friday in Royal Inland Hospital following a period of declining health. A celebration of his life is set for Friday, 3 p.m., at TRU s Grand Hall.
The city businessman was one of a handful of community leaders who established major junior hockey here, and kept it here in the early 1980s. He also was instrumental in pushing the City to build Riverside Coliseum downtown.
Day served as Kamloops Blazers president for 17 years, including the period when the Blazers became Canada s premier major junior hockey franchise - when the city was dubbed Little Montreal - winning three Memorial Cups, first in 1991-92 and then back-to-back in 1993-94 and 1994-95.
WOOSTER – A year after the Alice Noble Ice Arena narrowly avoided being converted into an indoor turf field, the rink has regained financial stability, if not profitability. The arena faces no threat of closure in the coming years, key backers say.
Richard Graziano, who chairs the Northeast Ohio Ice Committee that formed by a group of community members in late 2019 to rescue the facility from its financial difficulties, said his group has raised just over $200,000 in pledges.
NEO Ice, as the committee is called, collected $150,000 of the pledges in 2020, Graziano said, putting it on schedule for the amount community groups agreed to raise after the Donald and Alice Noble Foundation donated a similar amount to bail out the struggling facility in 2019.
