- LETHBRIDGE HERALD

Lethbridge Hurricanes, in partnershi­p with ATB Financial, have named Jadon Joseph the September/October ATB Cane in the Community Award winner.

Joseph, 18, volunteere­d his time for community events on numerous occasions in the first month and a half of the season. Joseph participat­ed in a home visit along with three other teammates for a Lethbridge Minor Hockey Associatio­n fundraiser. He was also a participan­t at the CIBC Run for the Cure and volunteere­d his time to attend Gilbert Paterson Middle School for a oneon-one Reading Program.

Joseph, from Sherwood Park, also went above and beyond during the Hurricanes post-game “Skate with the Canes” following their final game of October spending nearly an hour skating and playing games with children on the ice. He was one of the last Hurricanes to remain on the ice during the skate.

“Jadon is always excited to partake in community events and always shows up with a great attitude,” said Hurricanes Broadcast & Communicat­ions Manager Dustin Forbes, who’s in charge of player appearance­s. “It never takes any convincing to have Jadon included and it’s great to see the initiative that he shows while attending community events.”

In addition to his volunteeri­ng with community events, Joseph has had a strong start to the season posting seven points in 12 games this year all while attending high school.
