This gives the boys an opportunity to meet and make new friends, have somewhere to go with their Big Brother, and feel a part of the organization. As a non-profit organization who does assists many low-income families in the Clarington community, we would like to offer our Little Brothers the chance to swim at the new Courtice Community Complex. It is our understanding that there are community rates offered to various swim clubs and to the School Boards. We wish to request the council consider granting Big Brothers of Clarington this community rate as well. We would like to give our Little Brothers the opportunity to enjoy Clarington's newest facility. We hope that the council will consider our request. Our Little Brothers would greatly appreciate the opportunity to enjoy the Courtice Community Complex.
