This past Friday, the Whitby Juvenile AAA pulled together off the ice to give back to the community- to raise money for for kids in the Canadian Tire JumpStart program.  Wearing jerseys that were specially made up for this night,  the players talked to the kids that were coming off the ice from their games and walked through Iroquois arena further raising awareness to the importance of this program.  We're very happy to report that $507 was raised that night, not a bad achievement for our first time.  Visit our Facebook page: Whitby Juvenile AAA to see more pictures from that night.

With the holidays just around the corner, the Juvenile AAA has a lot to be thankful for and a lot to look forward to.  Sunday night, they had a 7-1 win against Douro.  Then Monday they attended the Junior A game Canada vs Russia, which unfortunately Canada lost but a great time was had by all.  As a team, they're looking better than ever-with new warm up suits, hoodies & hats.  Gearing up for the Silver Stick tournament on Jan 7th, they have a friendly scheduled for Dec 28th, then games against Loyalist, Tweed and Newcastle on the 2nd, 3rd and the 5th. 

October 30th our team wanted to help out Team Emma  We sold pink Team Emma tshirts at the door during our game and managed to raise over $900 to a very worthy cause.  Whitby's own, Emma Kenyon, is the fight of her life. Emma is six and was recently diagnosed with Ewing Sarcoma (an aggressive bone cancer).  Emma has already had 5 cycles of chemo and will have a major surgery on October 22nd to remove her humerus and shoulder and have her leg bone (Fibula) put in its place.  Nicole and her husband Brad have 2 other children, Kylah and Cooper.
