Sovereign Lake Nordic Club is very fortunate and proud to employ a large number of military service veterans. It is our goal to create an annual project to honour our veterans by donating to the True Patriot Love Foundation, each November 11th.

Whether veterans are facing healthcare challenges, their families are in need of support, or they are seeking to transition to civilian life, it’s our national responsibility to ensure their needs are met. By accepting that responsibility and giving generously, Canadians can find their own ways to serve. We are a stronger, more inclusive country when Canadians give back to those who have given everything.

On occasions like Remembrance Day, Canadians come together to honour the contributions and sacrifices of our many brave soldiers and Veterans. But, often, as the poppies worn over our hearts begin to disappear, so does the attention to the ongoing service-related challenges of our nation’s military community.

While this is a small step forward in acknowledging the great sacrifices of our service members, we feel that it is an important way to acknowledge and give back.

On November 11th, all current and past service members will ski and snowshoe for free at Sovereign Lake. All day ticket revenues collected on this day will be donated directly to the True Patriot Love Foundation through their donations page.

If you would like to make a donation directly to the foundation you may do so here and receive a charitable tax receipt for any donations over $10.

True Patriot Love is Canada’s Foundation for the military community, working to support military members, Veterans, and their families at every stage of their journey. True Patriot Love advocates for the needs of military members and Veterans and ensures resources are directed where they are needed most. The organization is thrilled to continue the tradition of Canada hosting successful Games, such as the Invictus Games Toronto 2017, which draw inspirational competitors from around the world and to ensure we support all those who have been wounded, injured or become ill through their time in the military through the inspirational power of sport and the Invictus Games.
