I want to express my gratitude to the Sharbot Lake community for everything you have done to help send a crew of 14-year-olds on a three-day journey to Montreal. For most of the students attending the trip, this is the first time they have taken a train, been to Quebec, climbed aboard a subway car, ordered a meal in French, climbed a mountain, floated on the St. Lawrence, and explored all of the sights and sounds of a busy city such as Montreal.  There is NO way it would have been possible without the hard-working students, fellow staff, families, friends and community of Sharbot Lake.  Thank you for donating, selling and/or buying countless baked goods, canteen items, eggs, plants, arts and crafts, pizza kits, lottery tickets, bingo cards, and bottle drive items. Thank you for your generous monetary donations.  Thank you for coming to the talent show.  Thank you for organizing and coming to the ball tournament and yard sale. Thank you for believing in the value and power of lived experiences. With the love and support of this community we raised over $10,000. I am very humbled to live and work in such a loving and supportive community.
