I volunteered with some of my colleagues on Saturday at the RBC Training Ground.

It was great to see young athletes between the ages of 14-25 years old challenge themselves at stations that test their speed, power, strength, and endurance.

Top athletes will be selected to a specific sport and lead to the Top 100 across Canada, then to National Finals (Top 35), and selected to progress as Future Olympians.

I had the honor to meet Erika Polidori, who was part of the softball team in Canada that took home Bronze in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics!

If you have kids approaching or at this age, you should consider getting them to check this program out.

, an idea that supports athletes chasing Olympic dreams is coming to Saskatoon on May 23rd.
I will be volunteering at this event.

Last week several of us volunteered to help setup for the Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Gala fundraising event. Although I didn’t make it to the event itself, it was cool to see their unique setup and theme to the event.

Another successful evening earlier in March where we were able to show our support to this all-volunteer charity through RBC’s Communities Together Fund. This will provide $1500 to support their needs, which goes toward their first aid supplies used in training and real-life scenarios. ❄🧡
