Longtime Ice Wolves supporter receives SaskEnergy Volunteer Champion Award

La Ronge’s Bill Storozuk was presented with the SaskEnergy Volunteer Champion Award at the Ice Wolves game on Saturday.

Storozuk rarely misses a game, having been a dedicated volunteer since the franchise began in La Ronge in 1998. He explained receiving the award on Saturday was a surprise as nobody had told him beforehand he would be getting it.

“It’s appreciated. It’s not something I was expecting or anything like that,” Storozuk said.

He mostly dedicates his time to off-ice official duties such as timekeeping, scorekeeping, and working the penalty box. He has also volunteered at Canada Day events and the Elks Fair for the Ice Wolves doing tasks like cooking burgers.
