U16 tackles Bluewater Granfondo
This past weekend the U16 Boys were invited to lend their muscle to help with a huge community event.

"Since inception 5 years ago Bluewater International Granfondo has raised over $240,000 to support Palliative Care Education for front line workers at Bluewater Health Palliative Care, St. Joseph’s Hospice as well as nurses and support workers within the community of Sarnia Lambton"

How could we say no... helping out the community .. and team bonding?!!?  It was a no brainer. 

The weekend started off Saturday morning at 8am at Mike Weir park in beautiful Brights Grove. The Team gathered and began setting up perimeter fencing. The Boys worked hard and we were done for the day quite quickly. 
Sunday morning they were up before the birds and started the day at 5am. They finished up the fencing, set up the bike corralls, and the picturesque starting line with the beautiful Lake Huron backdrop. First set of racers, biking the 150K route, set off at 7am. 

Our very own Coach, Craig Musico and his wife Kelly lined up at 8am for the 100K. So proud to see one of our team wearing that medal around their neck! Congrats Kelly & Craig!! 

The Boys returned to the park at 1pm to start take down. Everything ran smoothly and it was a successful day. 
Thank you Bluewater International Granfondo for giving the Boys this opportunity. It was an awesome team bonding event, and many life lessons were learned.
