Just For The Fun Of It

Our thanks to everyone that came out to the Disco Fever event last night at the Italo-Canadian Club to support our program. We especially want to thank Nella Bellcastro and her team for pulling the event together and for believing in what we do. The club did a great job on the food stations throughout the evening, the DJ’s kept the dance floor packed and local sponsors came through with door prizes for the event. For those in costume it was definitely a “big hair” event!

To all of you that attended, organized and supported the event – thank you for believing in what we do, and in the dream Don Petersen had 70 years ago. You are all difference makers in the lives of our players and their families.

Last night we put into service the basketballs donated for our Little Guys and Little Gals Division players by Leon’s and the McKercher family. In total, they donated 15 new basketballs to replace old stock, and in this case to add to the basketballs available to our younger group. This is a significant donation, and we want to again thank the McKercher family for believing in what we do for the children in our community.
