Congratulations to all the participants in this year's Summit! Once again, the collective creativity, involvement and hockey playing was unsurpassed. Everyone made it another memorable weekend.
Our Daily Bread Bread Food Bank collection was generous and we'll let you know the amount collected shortly.
From Heather Cunningham of the Meat (Toronto, ON)...
We are now on the Daily Bread food bank website. They are having a Spring Drive and trying to raise money.
For people to do so, they have to go to dailybread.ca then click on Spring Challenge (middle column), then "sign up for the spring challenge" then scroll down to "sponsor and individual or team", then do a team search for "Good Times".
The Good Times hockey league of the Arts (the Southern Ontario chapter of the HAA) has a profile and will track donations made.
We collected 300 lbs. this year and 323 lbs. of donations last year at the Summit.
