 Castle Gives BackCastle Building Centres Group Ltd has proudly donated a supply of t-shirts to the Special Olympics Brampton Panthers Swim Team. The team consists of thirty athletes with intellectual disabilities aged between 8 and 50 who swim weekly from September to May. The athletes not only have fun, develop important skills and build self-esteem, but also reap the benefits of improved health, self-respect and empowerment. Ten of the athletes compete monthly at swim meets against teams from across  the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area. Many of them are hoping to qualify at next year’s Regional qualifiers for the 2016 Provincial Spring Games in Guelph."The monetary costs to Special Olympic athletes, many of whom rely on the Ontario Disability Support Program as their main source of income, are quite a financial strain. Castle’s support was greatly appreciated and the athletes sure loved them." Rebecca Cuff, Ontario Coach for the Brampton Panthers Swim Team, www.specialolympics.org. New Member Western Canada is still the hot spot as Castle Building Centres Group Ltd recently announced yet another new member location - this time in Yorkton, Saskatchewan. Yorkton is a growing city located in the south eastern part of the province and is considered one of the fastest growing areas in Saskatchewan.

The two locations are successfully operated by the expert management team of Jim Chisholm & Lynda Hawke. The Yorkton Castle location is a full service retail building supply store that will focus on serving contractors, do it yourself customers and the local community. The lumberyard occupies a massive 6 acres of land on the Yorkton property and is located in a very diverse community and economic base that includes agriculture, mining and manufacturing. The store is currently undergoing a complete renovation and the management team and staff are very excited. "Yorkton is a ‘community on the rise’ and we are excited that Castle Building Centres will be integral to its growth," Alan Schoemperlen, Business Development Manager - Western Region. |
