Special Thanks to the Sign Cellar!
The Sign Cellar helped Kamloops Minor Lacrosse in 2019 with printing, installing and sponsoring two large board sponsor logos.
In 2020, The Sign Cellar surprised Kamloops Minor Lacrosse once again. Cameron Hackl confirmed with Kamloops Minor Lacrosse that the logo order and installation had been completed for our new rink divider board system, but he had a little surprise for the association. Two extra Kamloops Rattlers logos had been installed at no charge! As 2020 had been a hard year on minor sports, this amazing gesture was unexpected and such a wonderful surprise for the association.
Thank you Cameron and The Sign Cellar.
