FUNDING:

KEYSTONE CLUB GRANT
 
We have received a $5,000 Keystone Club grant!!  Keystone Club is Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada’s national leadership development program for youth 14 to 18 year olds. Keystone Clubs provide youth with the knowledge and skills to make positive choices in their lives as well as a place to use their creative skills to make a difference in their Clubs and communities. Throughout the course of the year, Keystone Clubs will complete at least one activity in each of the 5 core areas: Leadership, Teamwork, Healthy Choices, Service to Club and Community and Learning for Life.  We would like to thank the Keystone Club and Capital One, a chief sponsor.
