All For a Good Cause - Walk a Mile in her Shoes
The 2007-2008 Dinos Men’s Basketball team appeared very comfortable in their shoes yesterday. High heel shoes that is as they “Walked a Mile in her Shoes” in support of the Calgary YWCA and the Cardel Emergency Housing Fund. Helping to raise awareness for a worthy cause, the boys took to downtown Calgary during Lunch hour on September 24 strutting their stuff in front of a large crowd oohing, awing and cheering the Dinos around the 1 mile track. Even Rex, the Dinos Mascot joined the team on Stephen Ave as more than 250 Calgary and Area men walked in the hope of raising $130,000. Along with the Dinos, the Calgary Stampeders and the Calgary Hitmen were in attendence.
The Dinos were the only team with full representation, thus earning them a spot on Global TV News at Noon, live and on location. The team would like to thank all of those who supported the cause and the team!
