Canandaigua Lacrosse donates to the Golisano Children's Hospital

This past season Canandaigua Lacrosse introduced a new tradition - "The Shirt". "The Shirt" is designed to incorporate the upcoming season's theme and meant to motivate and bring together all of Canandaigua Lacrosse. Every player and coach from K-12 is given "The Shirt" in March by the Booster Club. "The Shirt" is then made available as a fundraiser for a local charity. This year Golisano Children's Hospital was chosen and supporters of Canandaigua Lacrosse were able to raise and donate $250 from the proceeds of "The Shirt" sales. We still have a limited quantity of "The Shirt" available - now modified by the addition of "NY State Champion". If you would like to purchase one please contact Pam Helming. Canandaigua Lacrosse thanks the community for the support of this effort!
