Another PetleyHare Country Corn Roast in the books! 🌽

Earlier this week, our team and their families got together for an evening of great food, live music, games, prizes, a mechanical bull and plenty of corn!

A big thank you to our Purpose Committee for putting together such a great night. It was a chance to have some fun, spend time together outside the office and give back to our community at the same time.

This year’s Corn Roast also helped support our partnership with the Ignite Durham Learning Foundation. Our team has already started filling the Chew Chew Train with food donations, but there’s still room for more!

If you’re visiting our Oshawa office, we invite you to bring along a non-perishable food donation to add to the train and help support local students and families.

Thank you to everyone who came out and helped make it another memorable PetleyHare evening! 💜
