How do national champion volleyball coaches spend their time during isolation?

As the days turn into weeks and the weeks are about to turn into months people are finding creative ways to spend their “home” time. In this case Red Deer Volleyball coach Keith Hansen decided to have some fun and took up a challenge posed to him on Facebook. For those of you who don’t know, Keith coached the RDC Kings Volleyball program to 9 National Championships. His playing days are well behind him.. or are they?

Challenge accepted.
I was nominated by Ron Thomson to post a picture of myself coaching. I am breaking with tradition and posting a video I just made with my kids. It was a contest to show your parents volleyball skills. At times like this it can be important to laugh at yourself.
New challenge! You have to post a picture of you coaching. Once you are nominated, you have 24 hours to respond or you donate $20 to a local charity. You then nominate 4+ coaches. I nominate: Lee Tipman, Aaron Schulha, Patrick C McFeely and Blake Calvin

We’ve received a donation of use of a Dodge Caravan from Southside Dodge- they’ve been an incredible support of us over the years. Attached is the photo we took at the dealership when we picked up the keys on Friday.

Ronald McDonald House Charities Alberta, Red Deer House is truly grateful to Matt Swainson and his entire team at Southside Dodge for their steadfast support of our work to keep families together during the unimaginable hardship of the need to travel for medical treatment for their sick or injured child. Our House is not a nice to have, but a need to have, and we are honoured to work with such an amazing community partner in Southside. The use of the 2021 Dodge Caravan will help us to keep our operating costs down so that we can focus on our work to keep families close.

We have operated in the city for over 8 years, ensuring there is a safe and comfortable place for families to rest while they focus on the recovery of their child(ren).

We are grateful to everyone in Red Deer who supports us! 😊

Smiles Thru Lindsey reaching out with a new video message and urging Albertans to look out for each other at this challenging time

Published on January 18, 2021

Todayville

The holiday season is well behind us, we’re heading into the coldest part of the winter, and although the days are starting to grow longer there’s still a definite lack of daylight in our lives. The winter blues are a real thing and this year we have COVID, a whole new serious problem to add to our mental health issues.

COVID is also the reason the Smiles Thru Lindsey team has not been able do public events for many months. Unable to reach out physically through school visits and fund raisers, Smiles Thru Lindsey is reminding Central Albertans to check in on each other. Also, please follow the Smiles Thru Lindsey Facebook page . They’ll lead you to the resources you or your loved ones need right away.

Meet Lindsey and the Smiles Thru Lindsey team in this powerful video. …And remember to check in on the people in your life.
