Jennifer, Jamie, Sloane & Todd
November 2024
Meet Todd, Jennifer, and their two children Jamie and Sloane! The family has been members since 2021, and they enjoy making memories within the many active spaces available at the CGC. Jamie loves the pools, has learned to swim, and is part of the Centre's After School Program. He was also active in the karate tournaments offered at the Centre. Todd enjoys working out in the Fitness Centre and playing badminton in the Field House. But one thing they all love (especially Jennifer and Sloane), is spending time on and around the Track! Sloane often shows off her speed and completes many laps despite being only 2 years old.
