The Coldest Night of the Year Walk in Strathroy went off without a hitch Saturday night with 41 teams taking part this year, and well over 200 walkers who raised just over $88,000 for 37 Frank Youth Centre. Director of 37 Frank, Dave Berdan spoke to the crowd before the walk.
Dakota, from Strathroy, has been going to 37 Frank for 3 years and tells myFM she feels that sense of belonging.
Strathroy-Caradoc Police see the benefits of 37 Frank every day, as we hear from Constable Katherine Lockwood.
Deputy Mayor Mike McGuire also sang the praises of the youth centre.
Strathroy United Church was the top fundraiser this year, raising over $13,000 and Pastor Brad Morrison spoke with us about how they did it.
Dave Berdan also thanked all of this year’s sponsors including the top 2, Hamstra Carpet One and Vari-Form.
