Western Hospitality Singers were on hand at Confederation Park in Calgary on March 29th to entertain and to cheer on an enthusiastic crowd of walkers and joggers for the 2015 Trek for Tourette.

Trek for Tourette is a 5km walk held annually on the last Sunday of March in communities across Canada in support of the Tourette Syndrome cause.  It is Canada's only national fundraiser for Tourette Syndrome.

Money raised from the Calgary Trek is invested in research and treatments that benefit Tourette patients in southern Alberta.

On March 16th, Christina of the 72nd Calgary Pathfinders and Sophia of the 79th Calgary Girl Guides paid a visit to the Western Hospitality Singers in Calgary to promote fundraising for their respective groups.

Tying this visit into the semi-annual Cookie Campaign to help support community activities and leadership development for young girls in the Girl Guide program, Christina and Sophia delivered orders of cookies and even sold more to happy barbershoppers.

For their part, the men of Western Hospitality Singers were very happy to support this fundraiser as part of their commitment to community outreach. The smiles on their faces when they received their orders show that the guys were equally happy to see the cookies!
