The Idea Behind Skate For Kids -
when
the first Family Day came our way four years ago Ed Holder decided to
sponsor a family skate to give families a fun way to celebrate the day
together and to help bring attention to a number of terrific community
groups. This year the focus is on families and
Skate For Kids
is pleased
to be the February event of choice for the
Boys & Girls Club of London
and the
great work they do in our community.
In addition, your food donation will also provide much needed support
for the London Food Bank which is being stretched during these economic
times.
♦
Important. All kids age 13 and younger MUST wear helmets when
skating.
No exceptions.
All skaters under 16 years of age must be accompanied by someone over
16 years of age.
On
February 20th Londoners came out to join me for my 5th
Annual Skate for Kids. For the first time, we had raffle prizes
generously donated by The London Knights, The London Lightning and The
London Regional Childrens Museum. Janet Hernandez was the happy
recipient of the London Knights hockey stick autographed by the team. The
Kamel Family enjoyed the London Lightning game on March 1st, and
the Jones and Weber families will both enjoy their 1 year membership to The
London Regional Childrens Museum. A sincere thank you to each of these
organizations for helping make the 5th Annual Skate For Kids the
success that it was. Above, is Janet Hernandez with her prize!
