What an unforgettable weekend we had! 🎉 Over 100 smiling faces, buzzing energy, and a spirit of community that warmed our hearts. None of this would have been possible without the generous support of our fantastic sponsors and the loving community that stood with us.
A massive shoutout to Freson Bros and the Rotary Club of Drumheller for keeping our spirits high and our stomachs full with delicious meals throughout the event! Your commitment to community welfare is truly inspiring.
We are immensely grateful to Popes Lease Towing, Rustic Chic, Badland Bargains, Attention to Detail, Fellowship Baptist Church, Ignite Youth, 18-2 Camps, The Brick Drumheller, Canalta, Gangsters Towing, Coop Hardware, Badlands Community Facility, Town of Drumheller, and 356 Creative for your pivotal contributions. Each of you played a crucial role in not just making this event a success but also in shaping futures by providing free registrations to youths who could not afford to attend.
