Testimonial: Our son, Riley Egan earned a spot with the Rockets this past season, he was apart of a team that
worked extremely hard and went to battle for each other. They were apart of one of the biggest turnarounds
in Junior Hockey. Coach Jeremy Blumes was instrumental in creating this culture and this accomplishment.
He gave us the confidence that Riley would develop not only his hockey skills but life lessons as well of being
involved with the great community of Golden. The hard working coaches, board of directors, volunteers, billet
parents, local businesses and game day staff make this program world class.
~ Ron and Helen Egan

Previous Players Say: “There’s nothing like being apart of a turnaround season, the feeling of success for the
club after so many years is just beginning to shine.”

                     Jeremy Blumes has been involved in the game of hockey within many different

Mayor’s Message
On behalf of the Town of Golden, its elected Council and members of staff,
I am pleased to welcome you to the Golden and District Recreation Facility.
We may be a small community, but our Arena is a busy hub for our residents. Owned by the
community through the Columbia Shuswap Regional District and operated by the Town
of Golden, the facility is home to many not-for-profit recreation groups from our Junior
B Rockets hockey club and Minor Hockey organization; to our Figure Skating Club and
Silvertips drop-in hockey; to the Golden School of Martial Arts and Hapkido martial arts
clubs. In addition, the building hosts many Town of Golden public programs, including
parent and tot skate, public skate and drop-in pond hockey. A concession, lounge and
meeting room are also part of the complex.
The Golden Rockets program has been focusing on developing citizens as well as
hockey players. The team has been active in the community, volunteering at the Gold-
en Food Bank, the Golden Senior’s Centre, and with the Little Mittens Animal Rescue
Association. Players have also been providing snow shoveling services to seniors in
our town. The program has given players leadership roles with our Minor Hockey
Association, helping kids develop a love of sports that they can take with them into
adulthood, ensuring that the spirit of the game will endure in Golden.
It takes a great effort from our dedicated volunteers to ensure the success of the
many groups that use this facility and we are thankful for all that they do.

Go Rockets Go!

                                     Ron Oszust, Mayor
                                     Town of Golden

Previous Players Say: "My first season in Golden was one to remember. The community
support was unbelievable and the billets and volunteers were awesome. We exceeded
expectations and I believe we left no doubt in any minds that we will be a force to be reck-
oned with in the future!” ~ #10 Janson Pashniak, Golden Rocket 2018-19
“Jeremy Blumes is a positive influence on young players. He held our team accountable on
and off the ice. Yet at the same time, he was very approachable. I feel because of this I im-
proved as a player under his leadership.”

THE K.I.J.H.L
                   The Kootenay International Junior Hockey League is the premier development
                   league at the Junior B level in Canada. Entering our 50th season, KIJHL teams
                   have successfully developed and prepared players to move on to Junior A and
                   Major Junior hockey, as well as college and university programs at all levels in
                   Canada and the United States.

Over 45 future National Hockey League players got their start in the KIJHL, including Shea Weber,
Barret Jackman, Cody Franson, Chuck Kobasew, Adam Deadmarsh and Ray Ferraro. Countless
others have earned scholarships after progressing to leagues like the WHL and BCHL, while many of
those who finish their junior careers in the KIJHL are recruited by college teams in B.C., Alberta and
the U.S.

opment and preparation for junior hockey. Jeremy has a great sense of what it
takes to run a team in terms of identifying player’s strengths both on and off the
ice and placing them in positions that will help not only the team succeed but
for the player to grow as well. ~ Nicholas Sandy - Iowa State University, ACHA

“My time spent playing for the Golden Rockets was a big positive in my hockey
career. The Rockets and the KIJHL gave me that extra year to mature as a person
and gain hockey experience at a junior level before moving on to Jr A. Playing
for the Rockets gave me a lot more confidence in my game and I learned how
to become a leader on and off the ice. The town of Golden is a beautiful place
to live with great billet families and fan support.” ~ Terix Fischer-Kobes - Portage

Previous Players Say: “Coach Jeremy Blumes was instrumental in my development and helped me
in midget to get to NCAA today. His coaching style rewarded hardworking players and created a
positive platform for skill development and improvement. While his ability to find untapped
potential in players will lead his teams and players to success. Playing in the KIJHL allowed me to
make vast improvements to my game while having access to Junior A quality facilities and coaching.
The KIJHL acted as stepping stone to the BCHL and NCAA.”
