The final bye week of the season is over and the boys get back to work on Saturday as practice resumes in preparation for the September 22nd game against Saskatchewan. The team had almost a full week off so let’s see how the boys spent their bye week.
James Wilder Jr. stayed in town spending time with the family and made a trip to Malvern Junior Public School in the city’s East end to deliver the end result of his #WilderforaCause campaign.
@IAm_Wilder32 shared with #TDSB students a great message to #getwilder about learning and keep on #hustling to achieve more and do more. The skies the limit! His words moved us and so did the school supplies #BacktoSchool #WilderForACause @christi71084434 @cherylboidoku pic.twitter.com/QhSJGDzlgy
