Dear Editor:
On March 25, Curl for a Cause was held at the Fergus Curling Club and what an incredible day it was!
Those who were there might tell you about the friendly curling games, being piped onto the ice by 12 pipers and drummers, the laughter throughout the day, and of course, the fantastic food (donated by Fraberts, Thatcher Farms and Zehrs).
We were gathered for fun and curling, but the real winners of the day were the charities we supported. Our incredibly generous community raised over $34,000! This money will be distributed to four local charities: CW Foodbank, Elora Co-op Preschool, FEDS Special Needs Soccer Program and KidsAbility.
So, I write this letter with immense gratitude to every individual and business who curled, donated, purchased advertising, supported the auction or the snack table and to all of those who worked tirelessly planning the day and making in run smoothly.
Thank you. And thank you again! What an amazing community we live in.
Laura Hofer,
Chair, Curl for a Cause, Fergus
