Duncan's day with Lord Stanley

Duncan Keith and his fiancee sitting on the stage as they and other family members were introduced. Keith had the Stanley Cup with him and of course that gold medal around his neck.
Close to 5 thousand people fill the South Okanagan Events Centre in Penticton Saturday to celebrate the Stanley Cup victory with Keith. July 17th was declared "Duncan Keith Day" in Penticton. The Chicago Blackhawks defenseman was given a key to the city.

Move over Sydney Crosby. Keith's a popular guy around these parts. Keith is now a favourite of the young Okanagan hockey fan. Keith won even more fans over Saturday when he made a surprise visit to the Penticton Regional Hospital where he visited those unable to attend the celebration. He then pulled out his wallet and made a 10 thousand dollar donation.
