Someone posted this online.

Vees/SOEC have approval for some fans, got this from email from Vees:

Spectra Venue Management, the operators of the South Okanagan Events Centre, presented a plan to the City of Penticton to increase attendance at the SOEC. City staff then presented this plan to Interior Health. Officials have given approval for 50 patrons on the suite level. Additionally, health officials have given approval to operate the Vault Restaurant separately under Covid-19 regulations which would allow for a capacity of 25 patrons. No approval has been given for bowl seating at this time. Please note that these approved capacity numbers do not include players, SOEC and Vees staff.

Food for thought. Wouldn't it be amusing as oh hell if the warriors and vipers surprized us all during the regular season and did something nobody expects and landed at the top rather than the bottom. I would be a aaah, aaah, moment for all us believers rather than for the few doubters of the vipers. Lets face it until the finished product produces and to see where we stand at the end of the season we are just people hockey experts having fun with BULLSHIT. Have a nice day. GO,VIPERS,GO.
