A fun evening with our crew getting fitted with some new skates! Our youth couldn’t be happier to have an opportunity to promote their physical wellness by staying active! Plus the off season is a great time for new skaters to get comfortable on the ice.

Many thanks to the friendly crew at Play It Again Sports Kitchener for their partnership and support today and for hooking us up with some gently used great gear!

Also always thankful for our community partners Camino Wellbeing + Mental Health for supporting our Youth Wellness Circle!

Yesterday we had a wonderful time at our Gardener's Picnic at Steckle Heritage Farm! Thank you to all the gardeners who made it out. So wonderful to experience the land with such a rich intergenerational community of grandparents, parents, children, youth and our beloved "garden babies" :)
