A sell out crowd at the Regional Y bringing in over $95,000 for the Strong Kids campaign at the Red Triangle Awards.
John Irving is the 2016 Red Triangle Award winner.
Irving tells CHSJ News his family has a long history with the Y and the proof came in a 1955 Centennial program for the YWCA.
He says when you looked at the back page on the board of directors were both of his grandmothers.
Irving calls the new Y facility a stunning Saint John success story adding having this infrastructure in place was key in the Y’s ability to help the Syrian families arriving this year.
Craig Bell Estabrooks is the Leader to Watch and he tells us being in the new facility with his colleagues and family was even better than he expected.
