As they did last year, the Corner Brook Royals have distributed money to several minor sports and youth organization’s in the Corner Brook and Bay of Islands area.
After handing out $30,000 to 17 groups in 2018, the West Coast Senior Hockey League team has given away $25,000 to 19 groups this year.
The organization made the presentations to the groups at an event Wednesday night.
As was the case last year, the team accepted applications from groups interesting in receiving a donation. Prior to issuing the call for submissions earlier this year, the team said it had a little less to give this time around because the 2018-19 season had been a little shorter than the previous one.
