The Price Family Surprise SOBC Athletes in Kelowna

They say you should never skip a day at the gym. And for some local Special Olympics athletes, that lesson was reaffirmed in a profound way when a few unexpected guests showed up to their weekly fitness class.

On a St. Patrick's Day to remember, athletes from the Special Olympics of British Columbia (Kelowna), participating in their weekly fitness class at Crossfit Okanagan, were surprised by a guest appearance from NHL legend Carey Price and his family, who decided to stop by and work out alongside them.

The surprise visit marks the first in a series of scheduled drop-ins from the Price Family—Carey and Angela, along with their three kids (Liv, Millie, and Lincoln)—as they seek to learn and experience some of the incredible charities and non-profits in their new town of Kelowna.

Not only did the family fully participate in the fitness class, but Carey also stuck around to take pictures, sign autographs, and meet some of his most special fans in Kelowna. The fun didn't stop there, as Angela Price also made a quiet donation of $10,000 to SOBC Kelowna on their way out the door!

Congratulations to our incredible friends at SOBC on such an incredible day, and a gigantic thank you to the Price family for taking time out of their day to make memories with some special humans.
