Morrisburg & District Lions Club

Morrisburg & District Lion President Linda Robinson and South Dundas Minor Hockey Association coach Cody Cassell were on hand at the Morrisburg Arena for an opportunity to exhibit a recent investment. Our Lions club donated $1,500 to purchase five sets of youth goalie equipment and the SDMHA is offering a free goalie clinic to help train and develop young hopefuls for future achievement as goalies.
Pictured are Linda and Cody with five recipients of the goalie equipment.
