City, Canadian Tire Team Up For Great Skate Exchange. Old Or Unused Used Skates Can Benefit Children And Youth In Need. The Great Skate Exchange aims to provide skates - donated by those who are no longer using them - to those who cannot afford their own. The City and Canadian Tire have teamed up to organize the program which encourages Kingstonians to drop-off their old, unused, or out-grown skates at three locations. PRO Kids, the City-run program which ensures all kids have access to recreational activities will make sure that the skates find their way to people who need them. Canadian Tire will sharpen recipients' skates for free and the City will offer a coupon for a free skate at any City-run facility. Skates can be dropped off in the Great Skate Exchange Bins from Dec. 17 to Jan. 4, at Artillery Park Aquatic Centre, 76 Ordnance St. - Canadian Tire, Cataraqui (Princess Street and Gardiner's Road) - Canadian Tire, Kingston Centre (Princess Street and Bath Road) - Old or unused skates can also be dropped off at Market Square on Dec. 31 during the Rockin' at the Clock celebrations, or at the Great Skate event on Jan. 4, 2008. The JumpStart Great Skate Event, to be held in Market Square from 1 to 4 p.m., is an afternoon of skating, hot chocolate and prizes in support of JumpStart, the Canadian Tire-sponsored charitable organization that serves PRO Kids, the Boys and Girls Club and the Kingston Family Y. All these organizations help children and youth access sport and physical activity opportunities they would not otherwise be able to afford.
