What fun for kids, coaches and parents of the Leaside Flames PeeWee Red Select team to bring back gold from the Canadian Cup in Montreal last weekend. The proud coach is Daniel McFadden who was tweeting his thanks to players, families and team coaches.
This great picture from coach Helen Panayiotou (Mrs Panayiotou in the halls of Leaside High) shows the determined girls of her winning cross country team at the Ontario Federation of School Athletic Associations (OFSAA) competition near Sudbury on November 2. Chloe Coutts had her shoe accidentally pulled off by another runner’s boot. Chloe courageously ran on without it to glorious victory. Her dad helped Chloe patch up her bleeding foot and carried her to the car for the ride home. Hat’s off to Chloe.
Friday, November 22, the Leaside Wildcats are supporting the first annual Leaside on Ice FUNdraiser at Leaside Arena. The funds raised are a step in accelerating repayment of provincial and City loans used to help build the second ice pad. Bid on the silent auction from Friday through to Sunday at 5 p.m. At centre, the Hammerhead crane now in place at the Brown Group site on Bayview Ave. means the seven-story mixed-use project will soon begin to rise above ground. At right, Realtor Patrick Rocca is the proud owner of what is surely the tallest Christmas tree in Leaside. It is now lighted and spectacular on his Bessborough Drive lawn.
