Junior hockey team in British Columbia is still waiting for $7.5 million
KIMBERLEY, B.C. — A junior hockey team in southeastern British Columbia says it has yet to receive a multimillion-dollar donation it was promised last month, but the man behind the pledge says it will be in the team’s hands in 10 days.
The board of directors of the Kimberley Dynamiters posted a statement Monday on Facebook thanking fans for their support and explaining that it had yet to receive the $7.5 million.
The junior B team said Mike Gould of Calgary was giving the organization the money during an announcement at the Dynamiters’ home game on Oct. 13.
Gould said Wednesday he knew the Dynamiters would be releasing the statement and the delay on his end has been resolved.
