VICTORIAS CHRISTMAS HAMPER DRIVE FOR 2013 IS ANOTHER SUCCESS
The Junior Victorias continued their tradition of collecting food for less fortunate familes in the St. Vital area and this year was another success! The team was accepting non perishable foods and cash at their Dec home games and raised enough to send food hampers to six families. In recent years the players were more involved by helping deliver the hampers and this year Easton Oliver-Hanna, Brad Angus and Michael Moore all helped out by delivering hampers. It was a job well done guys!
A very special Thank You also goes to Mrs. Kathryn Moore for coordinating the Hamper Drive this year.
