Our golfers continue to help school projects
Each year the proceeds from our July golf tournament support Elmwood High students. In 2024 we funded the following two worthwhile endeavours:
In April, the EHS Varsity Boys' basketball team won the provincial title for the very first time! We funded a celebration and skills clinic to help honour this outstanding achievement.
In October, the EHS woodshop requested funding to help them purchase much-needed new equipment for students. We provided $1,000 to help with their costs.
