Every strong community is built by people and businesses who step forward when it matters most. Cues 4 Campers is one of those moments—and this year, the invitation is open wider than ever.
Last year, the Lakeshore Corridor Community Team (LCCTeam) raised $5,500, sending 55 local children to summer camp—children who otherwise may not have had that opportunity. That’s not a statistic. That’s 55 lives changed through confidence, friendship, fresh air, and dignity. This year, we’re aiming higher. And we can’t do it without you. Why Cues 4 Campers Matters: Cues 4 Campers is more than a billiards tournament. It’s a community-driven fundraising event that brings together local businesses, families, and volunteers for one shared purpose: helping kids experience the joy and growth that summer camp provides. LCCTeam is a volunteer-run charity. Every dollar raised goes directly back into the community. No excess. No noise. Just results.

Gift of Christmas 2025: A Celebration of Community, Care, and ConnectionThe 14th Annual Gift of Christmas, hosted by the Lakeshore Corridor Community Team (LCCTeam), was a moving reminder of what can happen when a community comes together with compassion, generosity, and purpose.
Families connected through community food banks and community centres across the Lakeshore Corridor were welcomed into a beautifully decorated space created especially for the occasion. From the seasonal details throughout the room to the thoughtful table settings, every element was designed to ensure our guests felt respected, valued, and truly celebrated. A delicious turkey lunch brought families together, filling the room with warmth and conversation. The afternoon was enriched with joyful entertainment by Carla Gonzales, whose live musical performance brought energy and spirit to the celebration. Children enjoyed crafts, treats, and hands-on activities, and the room was full of laughter, smiles, and holiday magic. Community Leaders Who Stopped By. We were honoured by the presence of Rudy Cuzzetto, who stopped by to present a certificate commemorating LCCTeam’s longevity and service to the community since 1999. We were also grateful for the continued support of Ward One City Councillor Stephen Dasko, who joined us to show his encouragement for the work being done along the Lakeshore Corridor. And of course, a highlight for every child was the arrival of Santa Claus, once again warmly portrayed by Max Letham, who helped create special moments and lasting memories for our young guests. Practical Support for Parents, Joy for Children This year, care extended well beyond the event itself. Each household received a Shoebox filled with essential items, generously donated by The Shoebox Project, providing practical support and dignity to parents during the holiday season. Every child received two gifts—an electronic drawing tablet to inspire creativity and a stuffed animal for comfort. Older children also received a four-in-one game set, encouraging shared family fun at home. Adults were not forgotten: each family took home a centrepiece plant, a living reminder of the kindness shared that day. In the true spirit of giving, additional gifts were delivered to Armagh House Women’s Shelter, ensuring the impact of the event reached even more families in need. With Gratitude to Our SupportersThe Gift of Christmas is only possible because of the generosity of donors, volunteers, and partners who step forward year after year. We extend a special thank you to the Port Credit Community Foundation for their first-time support, helping ensure LCCTeam can continue serving families across the Lakeshore Corridor at a time when community needs continue to rise. We also thank our corporate sponsors for standing with our community: Platinum Sponsor
We are also grateful to our community supporters and contributors who help strengthen this event and our year-round efforts, including: Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 82 (Port Credit) (venue), Clarkson Community Church (community partner), and The Compass Food Bank & Outreach Centre, as well as many local businesses and individuals who support LCCTeam’s work throughout the year. Special recognition goes to Pazan Gallery for their expertise in photography, video production, and website updates, helping document the event professionally and share its impact with the broader community. Neighbours Helping Neighbours The Gift of Christmas reflects LCCTeam’s commitment to creating meaningful, dignified experiences for families who need support the most. Serving the Lakeshore Corridor since 1999, and led entirely by volunteers, LCCTeam remains committed to the belief that caring for one another strengthens our entire community.
