Pancakes & Plaid

March 1, 2017

Join us for a FUNdraiser – enjoy a delicious pancake supper and wear your best plaid … shirts, skirts, pants and socks in support of Camp Scugog! Funds will go to support this Durham, Recreational Centre and it’s mission to provide kids who don’t have an opportunity to go to camp to enjoy the experience! 

“Camp Scugog is a recreational camp near Port Perry.  Offering an outdoor camping experience for children, youth and mothers. Scugog’s safe, fun and diverse community is specifically designed to address the needs of those affected by poverty and other barriers. We believe that the development of positive attitudes and values is paramount to building a strong sense of self and community.”

Chez LUCY

February 8, 2017

Youth at Leaside United Church made a difference this past Sunday, raising approximately $800 for local and global projects that the church supports. The group, known as LUCY, (Leaside United Church Youth) sold 37 tickets to congregation and community members to enjoy a meal at Chez Lucy, a fine dining experience held at Leaside United. The group transformed the auditorium into a magical space and spent Sunday afternoon chopping, caramelizing, roasting, grilling and steaming. Guests arriving at 6 p.m. enjoyed a delectable three-course meal and were treated to top-notch service as well as a number of live acts performed by the youth. It was a spectacular evening filled with food, laughter and most importantly, community.
