Melodina Herman Memorial Ski and Snowboard
Day Mansfield |
|
Friday, January 28, 2011 - Friday, January
28, 2011
Location: Mansfield Ski Club
A day of remembrance and fun on the slopes
in support of SickKids Foundation. This
event is in memory of Melodina Herman who
was a student at Centre Dufferin District
Highschool, a FIS racer who trained with
HADT (Huronia Alpine Development Team) and a
resident of Hornings Mills. Melodina became
ill in late 2005 and in late 2007, she was
diagnosed with a rare form of cancer. While
she was ill, she received treatment at the
Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) in
Toronto. While she was a patient there,
Melodina became a SickKids ambassador and
did everything she could to raise funds for
the SickKids Foundation. Sadly, Melodina
passed away in January 2009. It is with her
spirit in mind that we, her family and
friends, continue her important work to help
sick children with fundraising events such
as this. This is a SickKids Foundation
sanctioned event and 100 of the proceeds
from this event will be donated directly to
the Foundation. |
47th Annual Winter Scout Campout
|
|
Friday, January 28, 2011 to Sunday, January
30, 2011
10:00 AM
Contact: Len Cox 519-371-9205
This annual camp started in 1964 when two
local troops decided to earn their winter
camping badge by camping out overnight in
mid-January. Attendance and activities
quickly expanded to include a full weekend
of winter activities and camping. The most
popular event is the Rescue Mission, closely
followed by log sawing, fire lighting, knot
tying, compass work, and an obstacle course.
We judge the sleds, which are pre-built by
the groups and used in the Rescue Mission.
There is a program for each of Scouts (ages
11-14) and Venturers (14-17). Trophies are
awarded to the winning troop for each event.
The trophies are kept by the winners and
returned the following year. They also
receive pennants to keep. Everyone receives
a crest. Scouts come from around Southern
Ontario and as far away as Miamisburg,
Ohio. Harrison Park
