A Giants sponsor is offering support to the East Elmwood supporters

Some of you may be aware that the club house of the East Elmwood Community Centre burned down due to what is suspected to have been arson. For those of you who did not know, you can read more in the reports from the Winnipeg Sun and the Winnipeg Free Press.

The Giants have a long-standing connection to the club, having shared responsibility for minor league teams over the years. We are saddened by the loss of this important community resource and look forward to hearing soon about it being replaced.

The immediate needs of the Commuinty Centre organizers are many. Western Storage, one of our sponsors, is pitching in by providing a portable storage unit for the donations arriving in response to a drive named "Project Elmwood II" originated by local radio personality Ace Burpee. You can read more about it in a recent newsletter.

We know the Giants family joins us in wishing the East Elmwood executive all the best in their efforts to restore the club house!
