Rylan Cameron / Alex Stevenson - Mike Bafaro Award For Dedication to Hockey

Mike grew up playing minor hockey in Revelstoke. In 1987, after his playing days with the New Westminster Bruins of the WHL were over, Mike returned to Revelstoke and has been an active leader within our association for the past 28 years. At the core of his involvement with RMHA whether it be as a parent, coach or board member there is a passion and dedication to honor the game and its virtues by ensuring that it is taught, played and governed properly.
