A huge Harkins thank you to the staff of RBC Newcastle Branch who recently helped supervise our Drama dance as part of an RBC Day of Service Grant. These $1000 grants, provided by RBC, offer employees the opportunity to volunteer and support local organizations. The money from this grant will help send our students to the provincial Drama Festival in Fredericton and to an educational camp at Mount Allison University in Sackville. Pictured are the RBC volunteers who helped make the Drama dance a success.Photo: Top left to right : Judy Walsh, Account Manager, Joyce Silliker, Customer Service
