It is the August long weekend and we are off to cottage country to see if there are any peach pies to be purchased, dangle our toes from the dock and luxuriate in the simmering heat of our fading Canadian summer. We will be back with the newsletter on Wednesday, August 8 and count on us to update the website should there be any breaking news.

From the FYI team to our readers, take care, enjoy the weekend and see you on hump day next week.

Cheers

Arkells Are Selling Toronto District School Board Hats to Support ‘Healthy Breakfast Programs’ for Students

Earlier this week, the Canadian rock band released baseball caps in support of World Teachers' Day to raise funds for nutrition programs across the city’s public school board.

Arkells love public education, and they’re raising money for it.

In support of World Teachers' Day earlier this week, the Ontario rock band has started selling vintage-inspired baseball caps with the Toronto District School Board’s apple logo embroidered on them. All proceeds will be donated to the Toronto Foundation for Student Success’ nutrition programs to "support healthy breakfast programs."
