    HC Santa Parade Float

    Hey Holy Cross
    Join the Holy Cross float in the Downtown Kingston Evening Santa Claus Parade!
    Saturday, November 17th.
    At  4 pm meet the float at Novelis behind Shoppers Drug Mart near the Kingston Centre.
    Wear your HC spirit wear, club hoodie or team jersey. Get an elf hat at the Dollar Store, our theme is Santa's workshop.
    Walk with your friends, club members or team mates alongside the HC float. It will be a great time to celebrate Crusader spirit and usher in the Christmas season.
    Mr. Orser's brass band will lead the way playing Christmas tunes. Mr. Esford will tow the float "Santa's Workhop" built by the Technological Education Department. Mr. Stabile's Leadership students and HC Students' Council will ride the float as busy elves building toys. Ms. Myers's cheer team will follow the float with Christmas cheers. Don't miss the party, it will be a great time!
  • Jamaica Fish Fry a Huge Success

    Jamaica Fish Fry a Huge Success

    The annual Jamaica Fish Fry was a huge success this year. In spite of the cold, snowy conditions, over 300 people came out to enjoy a delicious meal. Ms. Melo Jordan, one of the staff supervisors for the 2019 Jamaica Mission trip, also organized a vendor & craft sale which took place out in the Main Lobby during the Fish Fry. The presence of some amazing singing talent also added to the festivities as Abby Stewart, Brennan Laplante-Brady and Callan Murphy took turns singing for our dinner guests.  Just before the Fish Fry ended, the winners of the Fish Fry Draw were announced. Due to some holy intervention from above, Fr. Sebastian Amato, our school chaplain ended up winning the Grand Prize of two tickets to a Pittsburgh Penguin at Ottawa Senators Hockey Game. Thank you to everyone who came out to support this fundraising event in support of the 2019 Holy Cross Mission Trip to Kingston, Jamaica.
