The YMCA North Bay launched this year's Peace Week (November 16-23) on Monday with the presentation of YMCA Peace Medals. This year's recipients were Kyle Samuel (Youth) and Lindsay Sullivan (Adult).
Medals are presented to individuals or groups who, without any special resources, demonstrate a commitment to the values of PEACE through contributions made within their local, national or global community. For more about this year's recipients please see the article posted in the North Bay Nugget...here.
The Rotary Club of North Bay also participated again this year with their Shelterbox Display. ShelterBox Canada has been a part of the global ShelterBox network since 2000. We are an affiliate office located in Toronto, Ontario that raises awareness and funds to help support families around the world who have been devastated by disaster or conflict.
