Catholic Youth Organization, Hamilton

A huge thank you to the apprentices from the LiUNA Local 837 E.H. Mancinelli Training Centre for their incredible work at C.Y.O. Marydale Park last week!👏🔨

The team generously donated their time and skills to remove the deteriorating soffit from our pavilion, helping to preserve and improve this important gathering space for the thousands of children, families, and visitors who enjoy the park each year. 🌲

Thanks to their efforts, the pavilion is in much better shape and will continue serving our community for years to come. ☀️

We are especially grateful to Joe Sciarra and Nick Ciccone for their leadership, dedication, and commitment to supporting this project. 🤝

Partnerships like these make a meaningful difference and help our non-profit organization accomplish projects that would not otherwise be possible.

Thank you for investing in our facilities and in the future of the youth we serve! 🏕️

Our CYO youth minister is with representatives from around Canada with CCYMN. We hope their time together is fruitful to grow youth ministry in our communities and country.
