The Carpenters Millwright College training facility was where two Sisters, one Brother, and two community members gathered to help Halifax Cheer Elite (HCE). A local nonprofit, HCE’s mission is to develop strong, confident athletes through the sport of Cheerleading.

The task was to build a “spin-to-win” wheel that HCE could use to raise funds during Casino night. These funds would help cheerleading teams travel to Orlando, Florida for international competition.

As these pictures show, the volunteers accomplished their task. But even more important was the fact that one of the five cheerleading teams won first place, and brought home championship jackets for the first time in Nova Scotia’s History!
