The Kelowna Rockets and RE/MAX Kelowna have joined forces for a heartwarming cause.

To give back to the community, they’ve launched an auction featuring game-worn white helmets from the 2023-24 season.

Each of the 20 helmets is adorned with signatures and comes with a certificate of authenticity, ensuring fans can own a piece of Rockets history.

The auction, now live, closes on Wednesday, May 8, at 12 p.m. Interested bidders can participate by visiting the auction page, with all proceeds benefiting local charities supported by the RE/MAX Realtors Legacy Fund.

The auction is in Canadian dollars and offers shipping within Canada and the United States. Winners will be notified by the Rockets organization regarding payment and shipping details.

There is no combined shipping option. A shipping fee for each helmet will be applied.

Whether you’re a die-hard Rockets fan or simply looking to help, it’s an opportunity to support noteworthy causes such as the Central Okanagan Food Bank, Arion Therapeutic Farm, Kelowna SPCA, Third Space, Jo Annas House, and Central Okanagan Search and Rescue.
