Put your hands up if you love freshly picked apples! A few weeks ago our participants enjoyed a trip to Myers Apple Farm to pick their own delicious apples. While there, they discovered many apple varieties and brought them back to the program for cooking and baking. It was a great way to kick off the fall season at ECHO! ... See MoreSee Less

To celebrate CFL week, we had the pleasure of having Hamilton Tiger-Cats Linebacker Simoni Lawrence and Offensive Linebacker Mike Filer visit our ECHO Program last week. This was a total treat as our participants normally go to the Tim Horton’s Field during practice time to watch them sharpen their skills! While the players were visiting, we learned the “Oskee Wee Wee” cheer, practiced throwing a football, learned more about field positions and received an autograph souvenir! We even played a game where our participants asked questions of their choice and if they were answered correctly, Simoni and Mike had to do 10 push-ups with the participants. Our ECHO Program would like to thank Simoni and Mike for taking the time to visit our centre and have lots of fun with everyone. Go Cats Go!!! ... See MoreSee Less

Last week our ECHO Program visited the Daly Farm and took part in many activities such as fishing, riding a tractor and feeding some of their animals. The weather was perfect and our participants really enjoyed spending time at the farm. We would like to thank the Daly’s for inviting us to their farm once again and providing lunch and dessert from Dora’s Express and Crazy Cravings. Our participants loved lining up and choosing their favorite lunches and ice cream flavours and it was surely an added treat to an already great day! ... See MoreSee Less
