  Good morning, everybody, and welcome to another edition of Coffee In The Park with Jennifer and Cam.
• 0:22
  And, hi, Jennifer.
• 0:26
  Well, hello, Cam.
• 0:26
  I was going to say, and we are coming to you live from the Wall Coffee Roasters in the heart of beautiful downtown Acheson.
• 0:35
  And you know what?
• 0:35
  Today, it is beautiful.
• 0:37
  It's a glorious sunny day in downtown Acheson today.
• 0:39
  I think because we start every podcast, we always tell the listeners what the weather is like.
• 0:43
  You know, I feel like a farmer.
• 0:46
  Well, you are.
• 0:47
  You grew up on a farm, so you kind of are.
• 0:49
  But I think now they want to know.
• 0:51
  I think if we didn't say anything, they'd be like, what's the weather like?
• 0:54
  I know.
• 0:55
  And today is nice.
• 0:56
  It's sunny outside.
• 0:57
  It's beautiful.
• 0:59
  It's kind of warm.
• 1:00
  It's not like super, super warm.
• 1:01
  No, after a week of monsoon type rain.
• 1:04
  Man, the animals were walking in twos and they were heading to the ark.
• 1:08
  That's how much rain we have.
• 1:09
  My grass looks amazing.
• 1:10
  I know, mine too.
• 1:11
  Right?
• 1:11
  I was saying last night, my grass looks incredible.
• 1:14
  I know.
• 1:15
  So, there's good out of it.
• 1:17
  There is.
• 1:17
  It comes.
• 1:18
  Anyways, welcome everybody to another edition.
• 1:21
  Like we said, we are coming to you live from the Wall Coffee Roasters.
• 1:24
  So, because we're live, if you hear some noises in the background, like coffee machines whirring, people talking, kids screaming.
• 1:34
  No children today.
• 1:36
  So, yeah, it's actually a little quiet in here this morning, but it's okay.
• 1:39
  It might get busy as we get going.
• 1:41
  Oh, it usually will.
• 1:42
  It's because we're coming to you live from the coffee shop.
• 1:44
  That's right.
• 1:45
  And we're enjoying some new summer beverages from the coffee shop.
• 1:50
  Do you remember what you're drinking?
• 1:51
  It's a nitro iced tea of some sort.
• 1:54
  Pineapple mint, I believe.
• 1:55
  Pineapple mint.
• 1:56
  Nitro.
• 1:57
  I don't know what the nitro means, ask them, other than it has a little foam on there.
• 2:01
  It looked like a beer actually when they brought it to me.
• 2:04
  I was like, hey, okay.
• 2:05
  But it's a little early.
• 2:06
  But nonetheless, so yeah, no, it's really good.
• 2:08
  I really enjoy it.
• 2:08
  Well that's good.
• 2:09
  And we want to tell everybody that Coffee In The Park with Jennifer and Cam is brought to you by...
• 2:14
  Wing Snob Canada, where the wings are fresh, never frozen.
• 2:18
  Fresh, never frozen.
• 2:19
  With 16 different flavors, four different rubs. 16! That's right.
• 2:23
  16 different flavors.
• 2:24
  That's a lot of flavors.
• 2:25
  That's a lot of flavors.
• 2:27
  I've decided I'm going to make it my mission to try every flavor.
• 2:31
  I've already tried a number, but I want to do all 16.
• 2:34
  Listen, Mike Chadi's golfing in our upcoming golf tournament.
• 2:36
  He is. I'm excited to see him.
• 2:37
  I don't think he's bringing wings.
• 2:38
  Do you think he's bringing wings?
• 2:39
  Maybe we can ask him.
• 2:40
  That'll be interesting, eh?
• 2:40
  As Mike goes around the course, opens his golf bag, pulls out a wing, that'll be kind of cool.
• 2:45
  So anyway, we'll ask him, are you bringing wings?
• 2:47
  That's right.
• 2:47
  Actually, truth is, I'm helping somebody do a fundraising event and I said, let's get Wing Snob to cater.
• 2:56
  Yes, they do cater.
• 2:57
  I know.
• 2:58
  So they're going to cater our event.
• 3:00
  I don't think our audience knows that they cater.
• 3:02
  And so they'll come and cater.
• 3:04
  We're having 125 people.
• 3:06
  We're having eight different flavors of wings, cornbread, fries, sliders, all kinds of stuff.
• 3:13
  I'm so excited about it.
• 3:14
  We're going to raise a bucket load of money just because the food is going to be so amazing.
• 3:18
  Yeah.
• 3:18
  So if you have never checked out a Wing Snob location, you need to do that.
• 3:22
  I'm going to suggest that if it's that season, if you're getting married and you're looking for caterers, no?
• 3:28
  Well, like why are you looking at me like that?
• 3:30
  Because I can just see the bride with her white dress and wings.
• 3:32
  Yes.
• 3:33
  No.
• 3:34
  Not weddings.
• 3:35
  That would be the kind of wedding I would love to go to where the food is wings from Wing Snob.
• 3:40
  I'd do it in a heartbeat.
• 3:41
  She could wear a bib or change and do something. Probably not.
• 3:43
  Yeah, no, I guess not.
• 3:44
  Obviously, this is why no one asks me to plan their wedding.
• 3:47
  Because I would have Wing Snob at the wedding.
• 3:49
  Anyway, ten locations, eight in the city of Edmonton, one in Calgary, one in Grande Prairie, and best wings you're ever going to have.
• 3:57
  And Jennifer wasn't lying when she said fresh, never frozen.
• 4:00
  So check out Wing Snob at www.wingsnob.ca and Cam, Grande Prairie.
• 4:06
  You know, I'm going to Fort McMurray for baseball this weekend.
• 4:09
  Too bad there's not a Wing Snob.
• 4:10
  Is that far from Grande Prairie?
• 4:11
  Yes.
• 4:12
  Like, could they skip the dishes to you in Fort McMurray?
• 4:16
  It would be $2,500 if I did that, I'm sure and probably wouldn't be warm by the time it got to Fort McMurray.
• 4:22
  That's not even with the tip.
• 4:23
  No.
• 4:23
  You'd have to tip the guy like 800 bucks for driving there.
• 4:27
  OK, I didn't know.
• 4:27
  So Mike, maybe you want to open in Fort McMurray.
• 4:29
  Yeah, because Jennifer goes there like once every three years.
• 4:32
  But I love Wing Snob.
• 4:33
  She'd love a Wing Snob there.
• 4:35
  Actually, Fort Mac would be, you're right, Fort Mac would be a great location.
• 4:39
  We'll talk to him about it on Friday.
• 4:40
  When we see him at the golf tournament.
• 4:42
  Anyways, yeah, lots going on, lots happening.
• 4:46
  Hey, anything new?
• 4:48
  I'm just asking.
• 4:50
  No, you're looking at me like, I don't know.
• 4:52
  It's a busy week.
• 4:53
  It is.
• 4:53
  We have lots going on.
• 4:54
  There's a lot going on.
• 4:55
  I am emceeing a golf tournament tomorrow.
• 4:57
  I was at two golf courses yesterday.
• 4:59
  You were at two golf courses yesterday.
• 5:00
  And then we're doing one on Friday.
• 5:03
  Ours on Friday.
• 5:04
  And so there's a lot going on.
• 5:05
  There's a lot happening.
• 5:07
  But then it quiets down for a little bit.
• 5:10
  Well sort of, not really. Not really.
• 5:11
  Anyway, I'm really excited about today's program.
• 5:16
  And so I think enough of us.
• 5:18
  And the reason we're here, why don't you introduce our guest today?
• 5:22
  Cam, I am also so excited for our guest today.
• 5:24
  This has been a long time coming.
• 5:26
  She's been a little busy with a move.
• 5:28
  Yes, she'll tell us about her move.
• 5:29

• 5:30
  It was a big move.
• 5:31
  It was.
• 5:32
  A big, big move.
• 5:33
  But you and I had the pleasure of touring her facility when it was in the old location.
• 5:39
  The old location.
• 5:40
  And we were so impressed and so excited that we knew we had to have her on this podcast.
• 5:44
  I know.
• 5:44
  And it just took a while.
• 5:45
  But now she's on.
• 5:46
  But this is exciting because now we get to go tour the new facility, which I'm very excited about.

• 23:02
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: People donate it to you, they bring it to you, and you have a whole team and you refurbish it.

• 23:17
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So, tell us about that.
• 23:18
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So, obviously, it started for a purpose because there was a need.
• 23:22
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Let's talk about that for a second.
• 23:24
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: You know, it was Tiger Goldstick way back when.
• 23:27
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Tiger Goldstick, yes.
• 23:29
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Seeing kids in the neighborhood that, you know, didn't, they didn't have equipment, they couldn't play, and really started out of the trunk of his car.
• 23:36
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Right.
• 23:37
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so from there, it just, you know, more and more Edmontonians jumped on board, and more people could influence the program.
• 23:43
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so on it went.
• 23:45
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And then I was not obviously an Edmontonian, but Highland Sports was the one on Wayne Gretzky Drive and 118th Avenue where that was.
• 23:56
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so through, you know, many founding partners, lots of people would know the name Wilf Brooks, who was the owner of United Cycle, Wilf Brooks and a lot of people then acquired that building and started things there.
• 24:11
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so that there was actually somewhere to house the equipment and they were getting more and more equipment.
• 24:16
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So they needed a place to deal with it.
• 24:17
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: For a long time, it was all volunteer driven.
• 24:20
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: In 2008, across the road, we acquired another building, which then became our bike shop.
• 24:27
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so, it's just everybody has gently used sports equipment sitting in their house.
• 24:34
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so, it's literally just getting, that's all we want is to get that equipment that is unused in people's homes.
• 24:42
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Edmonton and area, we have 51 drop off locations.
• 24:46
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So we're trying to make it really easy for people depending on where you work or live, is just get that equipment to us.
• 24:52
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I want to go back to something because you triggered a memory for me, which is incredible, and that's Tiger Goldstick.
• 25:00
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So Tiger Goldstick was a famous, famous sports announcer here in the city of Edmonton.
• 25:06
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Like really, he had a great voice.
• 25:07
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: He looked, he looked, he, people used to say he had the face for radio, not for TV, but he was on TV, he was fantastic.
• 25:15
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And I didn't know that he started this.
• 25:17
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And I think that's amazing and fantastic.
• 25:19
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so, the history of it to me is incredible that way back then, somebody would recognize there's a need for this.
• 25:28
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And there are kids who just can't play sports because they can't afford it. There's a lot.
• 25:32
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And sports, you know, and Janna, you can attest to this too, from when you grew up playing sports and when I grew up playing sports, and Cam, when you grew up playing sports, to now, the cost is astronomical.
• 25:46
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: It really is.
• 25:47
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Well, you know, quite honestly, it's getting to the point where we even have middle class families that are having difficulties. Absolutely.
• 25:52
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: You know, it's you're deciding between insurance or groceries or putting your kid in soccer.
• 25:57
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Agreed.
• 25:58
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Like, you know, we all know the social, physical, mental benefits of sport, but it's so much more than that.
• 26:04
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And just giving these kids opportunity.
• 26:06
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And it's, you know, we offer things for competitive sports, and we also offer things for recreational purposes.
• 26:13
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We have a massive bike program.
• 26:15
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Your bike program is incredible.
• 26:17
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Like, I've never seen so many bikes, it's unbelieveable.

• 26:44
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We actually buy the palms and in our equipment repair shop, they just sew the palm in.
• 26:48
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Folks, you got to see it.
• 26:49
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: It's pretty incredible.
• 26:50
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We haven't been in the new warehouse, but in the old one and the way you had it set up.

• 27:07

• 27:25
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: You know, Sport Central is a place and we laugh is once you get in, you don't get out because your heart melts and you just want to do everything that you can.

  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: You know, and lots of people, you know, especially when we had a lot of people arriving from the Ukraine and newcomers, they're not people that are gonna go join some league or get into things.
• 28:54
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So if we can get them, you know, riding a bike or on a scooter, one of my favorite stories is, is we gave out some badminton equipment to a family and the young girl ended up playing across the fence with her neighbor and they did not speak the same language.
• 29:10
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Right, right.
• 29:11
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: But they were playing badminton together.
• 29:13
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And from there, you know, a friendship is gonna grow.
• 29:15
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: But the fact that they couldn't communicate, but they were playing.
• 29:18
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: What a great story.
• 29:19
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: No kidding.

  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah.
• 29:22
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah.
• 29:23
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Like that stuff like that.
• 29:24
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And again, we all remember when we were kids and some of us, we had, you know, bikes and all kinds of stuff and we would do that.
• 29:32
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: But there are kids that just don't have that.
• 29:35
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And their families can't afford it or get the means to afford it.
• 29:38
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And when I hear stories like you just told, that tells me it's not just putting your kids in hockey or putting them in soccer, although those are good things, but it's like badminton across the fence.
• 29:49
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I know, across the fence.
• 29:50
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah.
• 29:51
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: That's amazing.
• 29:51
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Or just even the fact that you, you know, rode your bike to the park and a few kids were playing soccer.
• 29:57
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And now you were started to play soccer with them.
• 29:59
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And you're, you've started to make some friends, right?
• 30:02
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And it really is about inclusion.
• 30:05
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We were talking earlier about bikes and we had our bikes and we rode our bikes everywhere.
• 30:08
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And if you were a kid that didn't have a bike, you kind of got left out a little bit.
• 30:12
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I know in my neighborhood and we didn't mean to, it's just we all had our bikes and that's what we did. We rode bikes.
• 30:17
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And that's, that is our whole thing is we don't want any kid left on the sideline because they don't have equipment. That's phenomenal.
• 30:23
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: One of the other things that I absolutely love that we do is we have an exchange program.
• 30:28
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Clearly kids grow.
• 30:29
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yes.
• 30:29
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so, you know, what fits you in October does not fit you in March.
• 30:33
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so all they do is bring that equipment back and we, you know, we upgrade the size.
• 30:38
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So we stay with them for as long as we need to on their journey.
• 30:42
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And you know, interestingly enough, we've had a lot of, you know, Sport Central kids, as we call them, that later come back and volunteer or become a partner with us because they were affected.
• 30:54
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And you know, we're in the midst of obviously soccer right now. FIFA World Cup, big time.
• 31:00
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We gave Alfonso Davies his first bite.
• 31:02
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Is that right?
• 31:04
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Come on.
• 31:05
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So again, you know, it got him around and hope to think that that got him to the park and where maybe some of his stuff started.
• 31:12
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: But you just.
• 31:14
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Okay, that just is incredible.
• 31:16
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And I've had the privilege of meeting Alfonso Davies and being with him at a hockey game and stuff.
• 31:22
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And his story is just phenomenal, excuse me, to me.
• 31:25
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: It's just a phenomenal story.
• 31:27
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: But I had no idea that you guys were part of that.
• 31:30
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And all it says to us all right is kids just need a chance.
• 31:34
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And we, you know, we serve Edmonton and area, but we also serve from right here to the northern Alberta through community outreach, which is bulk shipments.
• 31:43
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so there's people who can't get to us for whatever reason.
• 31:46
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so we're able to, you know, work with them and determine what is best for their communities.
• 31:52
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And then ship that equipment to them.
• 31:54
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So there's lots of remote places.
• 31:56
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: That's so cool.
• 31:57
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: That, you know, and just to put it in context, because we distributed 49,011 pieces of equipment last year.
• 32:05
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: 49,000 and 11.
• 32:08
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: That's incredible.
• 32:09
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Like, so, you know, when people really think about that, that you're handling all that equipment and it's...
• 32:15
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah, so hence, okay, let's talk about it.
• 32:17
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Hence, the need for a new warehouse.
• 32:21
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And you guys needed that for a long time.
• 32:23
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We were in your old one and it was, it was jam-packed, like jam-packed.
• 32:27
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah, so we ended up with, you know, the two buildings I talked about, and then we ended up getting another warehouse temporary in the west side of Edmonton.
• 32:35
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And then we had a partner who was lending us some space in their warehouse.
• 32:40
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And then on top of that, we were in about 20 sea cans.
• 32:42
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So, you know, four locations and 20 sea cans.
• 32:46
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And it got to the point where we were dangerously close to capping the number of kids that we serve.
• 32:52
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And I mean, it really wasn't an option.
• 32:54
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So there was lots of work done by our team and the board to figure out, like, we know the number is never going down in terms of demand and how do we do this.
• 33:04
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So we went from a handful of years ago serving 8,000 kids, last year was 12,706.
• 33:12
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And we actually believe we're on a path within five years to serve 25,000 kids a year.
• 33:19
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And a lot of that we can do through our community outreach program, because you can do the bulk shipments and you know that there's people in the communities or schools that can take that and do that.
• 33:30
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So really it was two years in the making of talking about the building, doing all the research that we needed to do, all of our kind of financial assessment and talk to lots of people that had been kind of in similar boats and all that.
• 33:44
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Like it was a very calculated leap, I will say that.
• 33:47
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: But you know, we got the advice if we're waiting for all the stars to align, it's not going to happen.
• 33:54
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And we wanted to stay ahead of this and not be reactive.
• 33:57
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So in August, we found our building.
• 34:02
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: That was the 12th building that we looked at.
• 34:04
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And as soon as we walked in, I was with our director of operations and we were like, check, check, check.
• 34:10
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: This is the one.
• 34:12
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So that everything got put into motion and the planning started.
• 34:17
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so then we actually moved in March and opened our doors on April 20th.
• 34:23
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And Sport Central has been built by the community and continues to be.
• 34:27
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We had $360,000 of services donated in order for us to do that.
• 34:35
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So it was everything from the transportation of our move to flooring, to a kitchen island, to office furniture.
• 34:41
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Like unbelievable.
• 34:43
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: See folks, that tells me you may not have money, but you might have something.
• 34:46
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: But you know what?
• 34:47
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I want to say that when we talk about Edmonton, Edmonton just isn't a great sports community.
• 34:53
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: It is a community that comes together to support things like this.
• 34:58
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And people are so willing to help.
• 35:00
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And if it's not financial contributions, it is that in-kind, what can we do to make it work?
• 35:07
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah, if you don't know someone in Edmonton, it's a phone call away right.
• 35:09
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah, exactly.
• 35:11
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah.
• 35:12
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And like I say, you don't have money, but you might have something that you can give.
• 35:16
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And yeah, it's amazing.
• 35:18
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So you are a non-profit organization.
• 35:20
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Correct.
• 35:20
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So that's great in itself.
• 35:22
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: People can donate and get a tax receipt for that, but help out.
• 35:26
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I think that's phenomenal.
• 35:27
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So you're in the new building now.
• 35:28
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Are you settled?
• 35:29
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Where is the new building?
• 35:30
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Tell us where it is.
• 35:30
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah.
• 35:31
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So we are in the west end of Edmonton, on 103rd Avenue and 176th Street.
• 35:37
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: It's 27,897 square feet.
• 35:42
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: It just works perfect for us because our front end works for the clients that come in and get outfitted.
• 35:47
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We have our offices upstairs and then we actually have proper warehousing which is really what we needed as an organization.
• 35:55
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We've got pallet racking and forklifts and loading docks and all of those things.
• 36:00
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I mean the number one reason we moved was to serve more kids.
• 36:04
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: But the operational efficiencies that we've gained, we've been able to put back into other parts of the organization.
• 36:10
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Well it's all part of it right, if you can be more efficient, you can serve more kids.
• 36:12
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I don't think people quite understand that.
• 36:14
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I mean you and I both worked in not-for-profits.
• 36:16
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I don't think people realize the importance of that operational efficiency.
• 36:21
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Sometimes it costs more to have that operational efficiency, but in the end, it's phenomenal.
• 36:28
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: You can be far more effective.
• 36:29
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: You're able to serve more.
• 36:30
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: You're able to help more.
• 36:31
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: You can do incredible stuff.
• 36:33
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: All not-for-profits are tapped resource-wise, whether it's volunteers or staff or whatever.
• 36:38
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Gaining that operational efficiency was amazing.
• 36:41
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: The other thing that it really lent itself to was to elevate the experience for the kids.
• 36:47
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: In our old location, it was just a certain circumstance.
• 36:51
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: When the kids came in and got outfitted, they were in an office or in our lobby.
• 36:55
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So here, we were able to actually build proper outfitting rooms.
• 37:01
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: One is branded the Oilers and the other is branded the Elks.
• 37:03
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So they're actually like locker rooms.
• 37:06
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We have nameplates above the lockers.
• 37:10
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So when they come in, their last name is written on there.
• 37:13
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Because I think there's a little bit of perhaps shame when people come in and they're getting that.
• 37:19
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So we wanted that experience to be like, you know what, how did I get to come here?
• 37:25
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And the comments that we've got from the kids and the parents, and them all taking photos and all that kind of stuff, it really has made a significant difference for all of us.
• 37:36
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And just to see the kids and the parents, and we see that every single day, and parents hugging us, and the kid can't even wait to ride their bike.
• 37:47
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: They're riding it in the parking lot now because we have room for them to ride it.
• 37:52
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so the move has been absolutely game changing for us.
• 37:56
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And now we're just about, you know, how can we be more proactive to reach the kids that we need to?
• 38:03
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I think the amazing thing is the number of people in Edmonton, the sports celebrities, a lot of people who have gotten behind you and rallied behind you.
• 38:10
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And that always tells me that there's integrity because they're pretty careful about who they get involved with.
• 38:15
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: They want to make sure it's integral.
• 38:16
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And I think you guys are the epitome of integrity in what you do.
• 38:20
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And I think that's phenomenal.
• 38:21
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Okay, so people can get involved.
• 38:25
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Well, first of all, let's talk about this.
• 38:26
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So if somebody, if a family needs something, what do they do?
• 38:30
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: How do they connect?
• 38:32
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: They can call or just hop on our website.
• 38:34
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And we make the process very easy for them to get to us.
• 38:38
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I will say the majority of kids come to us through different social service agencies because they're there for other services.
• 38:45
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So that could be...
• 38:45
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Is it drop in or do they need to make an appointment?
• 38:47
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: They do need to make an appointment so we can prepare for them. Okay, so go to the website.
• 38:50
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: But phone, website, our team in front is very helpful.
• 38:54
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Sometimes we're dealing with language barriers but we have lots of workarounds for that.
• 38:58
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We are about making their life easier and I think life is hard generally and I think these families deal with even more so it's just about how quickly and easily can we remove those barriers.
• 39:09
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Secondly, what if people have sports equipment and they think, like me, Jennifer has a kayak she wants to donate.
• 39:18
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: It's a kid's kayak, it's like brand new.
• 39:21
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We're going to match that with one of our communities.
• 39:23
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Janna is going to take this.
• 39:26
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I know, I think it's amazing.
• 39:27
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I could sell it but I'd rather donate it.
• 39:30
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Okay, so what do they do?
• 39:34
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: To donate, if again, just hop on our website, there's 51 donation locations around Edmonton.
• 39:39
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Honestly, we're in Leduc, we're in Spruce Grove, we're everywhere, Sherwood Park, lots of locations in Edmonton.
• 39:47
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We, lots of fire halls collect equipment for us, so their hours.
• 39:50
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: You know, they're obviously always open, so people aren't rushing to try and get somewhere by five o'clock.
• 39:54
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: But honestly, there will be somewhere near you that is easy to access.
• 40:00
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Lots of companies do equipment drives for us and then just call us and say, hey, we've got a cube truck full of equipment for you and it's our commodity and it's what we need.
• 40:09
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: The word you used earlier was gently used, I like that.
• 40:13
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: In other words, if your pit bull has ripped it apart, please don't donate it because you know what, then they have to spend money to get rid of it.
• 40:20
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah, so gently used.
• 40:22
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Ten years or newer is kind of what we asked for.
• 40:25
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Like it's safety things, I mean, equipment changes and so you need to obviously have the right equipment.
• 40:32
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Okay, third, what if I want to volunteer?
• 40:35
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Again, call or visit our website and there's two things that we need.
• 40:38
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: We need individual volunteers.
• 40:40
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Now, we are open Monday to Friday, 9 to 5, so that limits some people, but other people that have availability in that time. Are you open on weekends? We are not.
• 40:49
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So Monday to Friday, 9 to 5, that's where we get a lot of our retired components in and stuff or students that have blocks of classes and that kind of thing.
• 40:58
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Then the other thing we're looking for is group volunteers.
• 41:01
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So something really neat that we have is a ball kit program that we do with Edmonton Police and RCMP where we do a ball bag, deflate a balls, throw a pump in there and then they have them in their cruisers to give out to kids.
• 41:14
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So you might come in and you might put ball kits together.
• 41:16
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I'd love that, driving around and see a kid just give us.
• 41:18
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I would love that.
• 41:20
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I'd be all over the place.
• 41:21
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I was...
• 41:22
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Especially in smaller communities, it's a better opening interaction than the alternative.
• 41:31
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I was at a tournament on Saturday, a Tim Bits Soccer Tournament.
• 41:36
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I was there and like there were thousands, well not thousands, but hundreds of kids.
• 41:40
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Felt like that.
• 41:41
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: When there's little kids, they just feel like thousands.
• 41:43
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah, you're right.
• 41:44
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: There was hundreds of kids.
• 41:45
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: But you know, we were leaving there, driving away and I saw kids just on the street, looking over at the park and I don't know their situation, so I don't want to make any generalizations.
• 41:54
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: But I thought to myself, I bet that little kid wants to be over there.
• 41:58
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And I wonder why they can't be.
• 41:59
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Maybe they don't have cleats or whatever it is.
• 42:02
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And I kind of got thinking about that and thought, I would, man, if I had had something in my car, I would just stop and say, do you need cleats?
• 42:08
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Here's cleats, do this and that.
• 42:09
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I think that's cool.
• 42:10
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah, and it's amazing what kind of world it opens up for them, right?
• 42:13
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So, but yeah, volunteer support is absolutely something we need.
• 42:18
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Equipment is what we need.
• 42:19
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And then financial support.
• 42:21
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I mean, those are the three things.
• 42:23
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Financial support.
• 42:24
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Those are the three things that make us function.
• 42:26
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So how can people give?
• 42:28
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: What can they, I mean, I was gonna say, what can they give?
• 42:31
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: A lot.
• 42:32
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Oh, but how can they give?
• 42:33
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: What do they do?
• 42:34
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah, again, if they hop on our website, there's a donate button there and you can choose to go to areas greatest need.
• 42:41
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: You can choose to support a soccer player, a goalie, any of those kind of things that you want to be able to do.
• 42:47
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And then we've got a couple of special campaigns that we do during the year.
• 42:51
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: One of them coming up in September is our bike drive that we do.
• 42:54

• 44:36
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: But I don't know what I would have done without it.
• 44:39
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And I think part of it, now that I think about it, Janna, was the pride of ownership of my bike.
• 44:46
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Well, I want to read you this note that we got from a parent because it puts everything in perspective very quickly.

• 45:03
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: They couldn't believe they were getting their own, very own bikes for free.
• 45:07

• 45:19
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Like I've been at Sport Central for years and I still, when I read these testimonials and stuff, it's like, and that's what I say to people.
• 45:28
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Sometimes people say, Janna, I only have one ball glove or only have one pair of skates or only have this.
• 45:33
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And I say to them, you can't imagine what that one piece of equipment can do for a kid.
• 45:38
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So, you know, honestly, it's just, we want that unused stuff sitting in your house.

  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: So if you can get that to us.
• 45:44

  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Yeah.

• 46:00
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: It's the friendships, it's the inclusion, it's the winning, it's the losing, it's the all of those things.
• 46:06
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And I certainly, you know, I'm a driven person and I attribute that a lot to sports in my life.
• 46:14
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I'm going to drive around Acheson and I'm going to knock on business door and get bikes.

  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Get out.
• 46:32
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: Well, I know a lot of them.
• 46:33
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: You know, it's a really neat thing recently too, is we had a realtor come through on a tour.
• 46:38
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And again, I think everyone that comes through is it's hard not to be moved.
• 46:43
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And so he, he went home and kind of his neighborhood cul-de-sac.
• 46:46
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: He went out and collected equipment from all the homes around him.
• 46:49

  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: I know you're right.
• 46:57
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: And that's in a time when money is tight and people can't necessarily give money.
• 47:01
  What my mom reminds me of though is she missed dinner because I was born at about 5: People can still help by giving, giving that equipment.
• 47:05
