This past Saturday our guys were at the local Provigo grocery store in Lennoxville bagging groceries. The guys raised $625 for the Alexander Galt Regional High School Christmas Basket Fund. The number was a little lower than years past, but we were sharing the store with another fantastic charity, the Salvation Army.
The initiative was started 5 years ago by Gaiter Alum & former coach Charles Kobelt and to this date our players have raised in the neighbourhood of $4000 for the local Christmas charity.This day is always a highlight in the year for our guys. They really enjoy interacting with the people in our community and take a lot of pride in making a difference at this time of year.
On behalf of everyone in our program we would like to wish you all a wonderful holiday season and the very best for the New Year!
Go Gaiters!!!
