Penticton, BC: The Penticton Vees Junior ‘A’ Hockey Club is pleased to announce the hiring of Alex Welsman as the new Director of Corporate Partnerships for the organization.
Welsman joins the organization after two years with Canucks Sports and Entertainment where she worked her way up from an account representative for client service to an account executive for premium client services.

I am confident the addition of Alex to our staff will bring exciting results.”
