Memories from our Learning Centre Grand Opening

Learning Centre
The children with Eamon Clark & his crew in the new Learning Centre
On Friday, December 2nd, the newly renovated Learning Centre was unveiled. This event was attended by sponsors, staff, volunteers, and of course our children and youth. Eamon Clark spoke on behalf of IBEW 502 and the reasons why they decided to part take in the endeavour of renovating the Centre.

We also had former youth Jhavyn Morrison speak about the impact the Club had on his life and Keara Hachey, a youth who currently uses the Learning Centre, also spoke about its impact. The event ended with a ribbon and cake cutting, officially opening the room. Thanks to the major sponsors who made it all possible: IBEW 502, Giant Tiger, and Canaport LNG.
