Few have any idea just how Christmas is going to work out.
There isn’t going to be a Santa Claus parade and while the seasonal lighting will be going up in Spencer Smith Park there is concern about social distancing.
Will we still be in Stage 3, where we are now or will the province have to clamp down and put us back into Stage 2.
The report of a certain MPP attenuating a party with 50 mask-less people isn’t going to help us remain in Stage 3.
The Burlington Cougars however have already set out their Christmas Challenge.
The year they will again be helping families in need in our community with their annual Holiday Toy Drive at Toys “R” Us, in collaboration with our community partners – Burlington Professional Firefighters Association and the Salvation Army.
Simply bring your new, unwrapped toys to donate and say a socially-distanced hello to the Burlington Cougars players, coaches, staff and other community members!

We appreciate all of your contributions – every donation counts to help families struggling to make ends meet this holiday season.
A special thank you to Papa John’s Burlington and Tim Hortons (Appleby and Dundas) for supporting our volunteers with refreshments during the event. We look forward to seeing you soon, #CougarCountry
