After a fantastic win at Appleby Ice
Centre, the Minor Atom A boys came together in their kick-off for Burlington's
Food Drive. Thanks to the efforts of the parents, led by Linda Ryan, Stacey
Mulvale, Liza Gowe and Liz Vandewall, the team's food drive was a huge success.
As a result of achieving their goal to collect hundreds of cans of food, the boys felt proud to have done their part. At this age, the kids are really starting to understand what it means to help others, and it was great to see their smiling faces and positive attitudes. Not only that; they had a great time and managed to squeeze in some trampoline time, a quick game of football, and (regrettably for some) a fairly long hike that left some of the parents wondering if they'd ever see their kids again. All's well that ends well and for this Minor Atom A team, today was time very well spent.
