A Letter from our TASA President & Executive Vice President

 

Dear, TASA families, 

 It has been an emotional past few weeks for all of our TASA community. Words cannot describe what our community has experienced. We sincerely hope you are all doing well and are on the road to recovery however for some of us that road will be much longer. 

 Since the early days of the evacuation, TASA has been receiving offers of support from the hockey community. We have been busy collecting gear donations in an effort to get our kids back on the ice as soon as possible. Currently we have received donations from two partners and there are more donations scheduled to come in. 

 I know that many of us are back in our homes with some still not able to get in yet. Unfortunately, we have TASA families that lost their homes and others have smoke damage and can't yet return. TASA would like to start hearing from anyone who may have lost their hockey gear due to fire or smoke damage or any other reason as a result of the fires. We want to make sure your players are ready to hit the ice when the time comes. We will be holding an event to give out hockey gear at some point in the coming weeks, but if something is needed sooner, please let us know as soon as possible and we will make sure to make it available. As I mentioned we already have some donated gear and expect to get more over the next 2 weeks. 

 For anyone with any gear requirements please contact Sheldon MacKinnon at [email protected]. I would like to start building a list of what will be required so we will have it ready to go. Also, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. 

 Thanks,

 

Sheldon MacKinnon
