Last week TEAM EY won the City of Toronto 2007 Volunteer Group of the Year Award!
Team EY was nominated by city councillor Janet Davis and by Stan Waldow Park Recreationist Sue Francis for all their hard work developing the local skateboaring scene in East York, most importantly securing and designing the East York Skatepark. As well as, all the free events we hosted - 3 contests, 2 mural painting days, countless park clean-ups, a BBQ/fundraiser and taking leadership in developing a strong youth community at the skatepark.
The awards ceremony was held on Nov. 26th, 2008 and 10 of the 13 current Team EY members were able to attend to recieve a plaque for the team, individual certificates and volunteer years of service pins.
Not bad for doing what we love to do!
Random dude at ceremony: "Hey, you should have won for best dressed too!"
