Re: Abbotsford Hawks Anyone? As the Secretary for Heat Generation – the official Booster Club of the Abbotsford Heat, I would like to clarify a couple of the facts in Rolf Spaeiti’s article.
The club is a registered society, not a registered charity. This is a small but important distinction as the club is not able to offer tax receipts for either monetary or gift-in-kind donations as a registered charity would be able to do.
Rolf was instrumental in the formation of the Booster Club and made a big contribution as the founding Co-Chair for a number of years. The Board of Directors and our members are very grateful for all his hard work. At the AGM held in September 2014 Rolf decided to step down, so it would be more accurate to describe him as the former Co-Chair.
