As we close the chapter on 2025, the EGIHL league is proud to share its recent accomplishments. Thanks to the generosity of our members and supporters through the GoFundMe campaign, we successfully raised enough funds to present each of the three local food banks with a cheque for $1,650.00. In addition to these donations, the league and its members rallied together to help Colin Wackett bring Christmas festivities to approximately 13 local families. These initiatives highlight the strong character and unwavering commitment of our league members to support the communities in which we live.
Wishing everyone a fantastic start to 2026. May this year be filled with success, good health, and exciting opportunities for the entire EGIHL membership!

It has been 7 years since our friend, Andrew Klauke, suffered a tragic injury that left him paralyzed from the waist-down. He has continued to work hard to regain as much mobility as possible and continue life as normal as possible. His business, Klauke Carpentry, continues to operate as he maintains a busy family life with his wife and 4 daughters.
Andrew celebrated his 40th in May with a bunch of family and friends at the Blue Jays game.
