Community Involvement

CCTA Supports Youth Soccer

Spring is in the air and CCTA is proud to report that we have once again sponsored several boys and girls soccer teams in the Towns of Collingwood and Bracebridge.  In addition, several of our staff continue to donate their time as coaches and several staff kids are active players.

CCTA Bowl for Kids Sake!

On Thursday April 19, 2012, CCTA participated in the 2012 Bowl for Kids Sake in support of Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Orillia. This year the team raised $660 to support the organization along with being a lane sponsor for the event. CCTA participated on the "Construction and Insurance " night of the event, during which there was some fun events like bowling for a strike with oven mitts, and bowling backwards - both were good for a few laughs. Unfortunately the score sheet disappeared after the event and could not be validated, so we will never know who actually had the best score on our team.

Simcoe County Regional Science and Technology Fair

Our very own Patty Mitchell was a judge for the Simcoe County Regional Science & Technology Fair held Friday March 30 and Saturday March 31 at the Bear Creek H.S. in Barrie. There were over 150 very excited Simcoe County students from Grades 4 to 12 (including the daughter of one staff).  Patty judged the projects categorized under Earth and Environmental Sciences for students in grade 7 and 8.  Projects varied from reducing plastics in landfills, to what are storm water management ponds for, to what impact do humans have on inhabiting wild life's habitat. One of the students  actually contacted CCTA to ask about stormwater management ponds. Patty had a great time and thought all the student projects were well done.

CCTA Supports 3rd Annual Steve Cripps Memorial

We are proud to support this golf tournament organized by the City of Barrie.  In addition to hole sponsorship, CCTA will be fielding a team.  Funds raised will benefit Lifewater Canada, a registered volunteer-driven organization that trains and equips the rural poor in Africa to drill wells and build washrooms.  Every year Lifewater crews provide more than 10,000 men, women and children with clean water, sanitary toilets and lifesaving knowledge in preventing illness.  Last year's 2nd Annual Steve Cripps Memorial raised enough money to build 3 wells.
