HELP OUT. At the Gloucester Hockey Association Finals this weekend, we are helping our friends at Eastern Ottawa Resource Centre to collect food donations. We challenge our fellow associations to provide more donations than we will make. There will be a box for each of us. This is going to be fun.

More and more reasons to walk away from this company. They don't seem to care about anything other than monetizing their users.
