Okanagan Region Program Assistant of the Year Award

Keelyn Mitchell

Keelyn Mitchell won the Skate Canada 2020 Program Assistant of the Year Award for the Okanagan Region.
Keelyn was always the first helper on the ice and ready to help her coaches as much as she could. She always had such a wonderful, positive, bubbly attitude that she was ready to pass on to the younger skaters. Keelyn always asked if there was anything else she could do or how she could help coaches, parents and skaters. 
We celebrate people like Keelyn and are so thankful for all of her amazing help and positivity.
