Inclusive Spirit Award

The K-Wings brought home the prestigious award for the second straight year, as it hosted nine 'Cause Games' that ranged from Deaf Awareness, Alzheimer's Awareness, Black Heritage, LBGTQ+, Hockey for Her, and Lavender Ice. These events touched all areas of inclusivity: gender, race, religion, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status.
