CTC Staff Supports Relay For Life

The Trent Hills Canadian Tire staff had a great night at the Relay for Life held at the Campbellford Fair Grounds on Friday September10th. Even though it was a chilly night, it was for a great cause and fun was had by all.

Our staff held biweekly bake sales for over three months to raise funds for the Relay and entered two teams into the event. One team was called the Crusaders and the other was entered In Memory of John Rightmyer, an inspirational co-worker who passed recently. The Rightmyer team wore JOHN’s name (see below) to highlight his life.

J – Journey
O – Of
H – Hope
N – Never give up

Together our staff collected over $3,500.00 adding a significant amount to the $150,000.00 plus raised by the community.

Our staff is already planning our fundraising drive for the 2011 Relay for Life and are going to kick it off with a Thanksgiving pot luck followed by a Christmas turkey raffle with more to come.

The Relay committee would like to thank everyone who contributed this year and look forward to another successful campaign.

Remembering John Rightmyer

Once in awhile, if you’re truly lucky, an individual crosses your path and teaches you a precious lesson about how a good life should be lived.

He shows you that a job worth doing is a job done to the best of your abilities. He teaches you that friendship is without demand, constant, and waiting for you when ever you need it. he shows you that bravery and strength are not measured by muscle and brawn, but by character and the fortitude to face any misfortune that comes your way with dignity, grace and peaceful acceptance.

John Rightmyer was such a man and we are truly thankful and grateful to have enjoyed the time we spent with him.

Stewart Davies Annual Tournament

For years Fran Davies has been a common site here at Canadian Tire. She moved from the Bridge Street location with us to the new facility and is always ready to lend a helping hand with a smile.

In October 2000, Fran’s son Stewart succumbed to cancer at the early age of fifteen, after a two year battle. Fran, along with her friends and family, decided to host a golf tournament in Stewart’s memory that year to let the people know how much they appreciated everyone’s support during their time of need. This year is the 10th anniversary of the Annual Stewart Davies Charity Golf Tournament and it is still going strong.

This years tournament will be held on Saturday June 26th at the Salt Creek Golf Links in Warkworth. It is a 4 person, best ball format for 18 holes with the price of $60 for non-members and $40 for members. There are meals and prized for all players and all the proceeds are going to the local schools breakfast program. If you are interested in playing just call Salt Creek at 705-924-1521 or visit www.saltcreekgolflinks.com

Steve McCarthy and the Trent Hills Canadian Tire family have always been behind Fran supporting her all the way. In the past the Canadian Tire Foundation for Families has matched all the proceeds earned at the tournament and this has been very much appreciated.
