Soles4Souls

Our friend Matt Dominguez from Better Homes and Gardens - Signature Service Realty in Moose Jaw dropped into the 800 CHAB Morning Show this week to tell us about Soles4Souls.
Matt is asking us, during the month of May, to drop off our old, dirty sneakers, cleats, runners, boots and dress shoes at Better Homes and Gardens - Signature Service Realty OR at Murray GM. Soles4Souls recycles our shoes. In fact, in many cases, our shoes are simply shipped to countries around the world where people can't afford shoes at all. It's a wonderful charity and Matt Dominguez is doing wonderful things in our community. THANKS, MATT!

Ryland Pashovitz (#35) has finished his AAA Generals career in Moose Jaw, and his parents wrote a wonderful "Thank You" note to our city - read below
Dear Editor,
Today as we drive down the road 2 hours from Saskatoon to Moose Jaw one last time, we say goodbye to our friends and team mates to attend the final AAA awards banquet for our son. It's hard to believe it's over it feels like just yesterday we were pulling into town for the first time with a truck load of all our sons belongings. To drop him off in the "friendly city" where we would leave him in your hands for the next 2 hockey seasons! We had no idea what to expect, but his experience there has been above and beyond anything we could have ever imagined! You couldn't have made him feel more welcome or at home! What a treat to get to break in Mosaic Place!! Every hockey player should be so lucky!
It is with great gratitude that we say "Thank you" to all the many people that had a part in our sons Midget hockey career. The Moose Jaw Generals, treated our son with so much respect and helped him grow and develop so much as a hockey player but more importantly as a person. There are so many people to thank in our 2 years with the team, Coach Ray, Assistant coach Jeremy , video trainer Darwin, trainer John our equipment team Kevin and Chris and also Fern, Thank you staff for your leadership and support! The list goes on... to all the many, many generous volunteers, from the scorekeepers to the great music played to get the boys pumped for the games..to Dave and Cathy for sitting at the entrance game after game, THANK YOU to absolutely everyone and anyone that took on a volunteer job during the hockey season, so we parents could just sit and enjoy, we appreciate the time you took out of your busy lives for the Generals! Not only were you volunteers but also our greatest fans! To the other families, we were so fortunate to have met you and it was a privilege to share this the experience with your boys. Good times! We loved
