On Wednesday July 20th the Los Angeles Kings presented local hockey rinks in their “Rink Royalty Partnership” donations totaling $23,500, all of which will go directly toward youth hockey initiatives at the participating rinks. During the 2010/11 hockey season 18 local ice and inline rinks participated in the “Rink Royalty Partnership”.
