Kincardine Community Living supported individuals volunteer at Tim Hortons Camp Day

Every year, Tim Hortons Camp Day brings people together to help send kids to camp. Several supported individuals with Community Living of Kincardine and District were thrilled to volunteer at it again this year.

July 16, Cassandra Ritchie, Marianne Stewart, Samm Hodgins, Catherine Benjamin, Bethany Collins, Jeffrey Vande Klippe and Allan Moore spent the day volunteering at the downtown Tim Hortons location, taking on different roles and bringing big energy and smiles to every shift. From running games to decorating cookies, they made the day brighter for everyone who walked through the doors.

For Marianne, the best part was connecting with people. “I like saying hi to everyone who comes in,” she said. “I liked being in charge of the sucker game – I was happy to win a pool floatie when I played the game!”

Samm loved being where the action was. “The cookie-decorating station and the sucker game were my favourites! Customers said hi to me when they came in. I was excited to see if anyone won a prize.”

Allan reflected on the bigger picture. “It’s fun to help out with Camp Day. Everyone seemed happy. It’s a good cause – for kids to be able to go to camp.”

And for Cassandra, Camp Day is something she looks forward to every years. “I was happy to help out,” she said. “It’s always fun to be part of it.”

Together, they weren’t just lending a hand — they were helping create a sense of community, and making a real difference with every smile, game, and cookie.
