“It’s a fantastic effort from everyone involved and I’m stoked to see the brigade and many of my close mates giving their support for this very meaningful fun fundraiser.”
Kira Tremain, of Scarborough, is also featured in the calendar and wanted to do her bit to help.
“The reason I decided to do the calendar was to help those children less fortunate, they are so innocent and what some of them have to endure really isn’t fair at such a young age,” she said.
“I spent a fair bit of time in PMH when I was eight years old – not in the burns unit but I still found the hospital a scary place as a child, so I thought what better way to help such a great cause than by taking part in this fun fundraiser.”
