Homebase 2023
After a record-breaking year, one of the community’s most beloved family sports events is squaring up to hit another fundraising home run for the KGH Foundation. The Gorges-Comeau Homebase Charity All-Star Game & Slo-Pitch Tournament will take place Friday, June 23, and Saturday, June 24, in Kelowna. Raymond James is also back as the presenting sponsor. This year, all funds raised will be in support of the KGH Foundation’s mental health care component of the Closer to home than you think campaign – a commitment to raising $3.5 million to address the mental health care crisis right here at home.
Homebase started in 2018, as an idea from Josh Gorges (former Kelowna Rocket’s captain), who grew up in Kelowna and returns home each summer. Together with his friend and fellow Rockets alumni Blake Comeau, they rallied other NHL players and their families to participate – and Homebase was born. Last year's Homebase raised a record-breaking $242,000 for mental health care!
