Red Friday
At Canadian Finals Rodeo there will be a special military tribute on Red Friday at the performance (Friday, November 12). To support this, Lammle's Western Wear & Tack is now selling Wrangler National Patriot shirts, where part of the shirt sales proceeds will be allocated to support Canadian military related programs, including the Military Family Resource Centre at Edmonton Garrison and the Canadian Hero Fund.
You are encouraged to show your support and wear red on November 12, and no better way than to purchase the official Wrangler National Patriot shirt today! These shirts are exclusively available at Lammle's Western & Tack, the official western wear retailer of Canadian Finals Rodeo.

About Canadian Hero Fund (http://www.herofund.ca):
The Canadian Hero Fund is a registered charitable organization dedicated to supporting Canadian military personnel and their families. Canadian Hero Fund was founded in 2009 by students and recent graduates at the University of Toronto who were deeply affected by the increasing number of Canadian casualties in Afghanistan and the young families they left behind. As university students, the founders understood the benefits of post-secondary education and felt the best way they could help these families was to provide the same opportunities to the dependents of fallen Canadian soldiers. The initial project of the Canadian Hero Fund is therefore to provide post-secondary scholarships to the children and spouses of fallen Canadian soldiers.

As a national civilian charity, the Canadian Hero Fund raises money through community, grassroots efforts and acts as a conduit for all Canadians to show their support and care for military families and their sacrifice. The initial project of the Canadian Hero Fund is to provide post-secondary scholarships to the children and spouses of fallen Canadian soldiers. Scholarships awarded by the Fund help finance post-secondary education at government-accredited universities, colleges and technical schools. Our fundraising goal for the Scholarship Program is $2,000,000 over four years. The Canadian Hero Fund allocated its first scholarship in the Fall of 2010.
