ABOUT THE FUNDRAISER
Every 4 years the North Bay professional firefighter's select a local charity to partner with in putting together a one of a kind Calendar. Funds raised from the sale of the calendars and all other associated events go directly to the charity. This year the funds will be donated to the Community Living North Bay Outcomes fund. This fund can be accessed by people in the community to purchase life enhancing assistive device, entertainment, and other necessities.
Outcomes Fund Stories
CLNB’s Outcomes Fund supported the purchase of new glasses for Takara. She chose two pair that make her feel confident while attending school and participating in the activities she loves. She now has clear vision in her day-to-day living. Takara loves her glasses, and her family is beyond appreciative of the support.
In 2015 Wyld residents realized their dream & purchased a Honda Goldwing & sidecar. The residents, family & friends fundraised to cover initial & ongoing costs. For the past 2 years, the Outcomes Fund has generously contributed towards the insurance costs greatly easing the financial strain. The benefits to owning this motorcycle & sidecar are many & have been life changing. The thrill & pure joy the ride brings to residents, the increased participation in community events & of course, the sense of freedom from feeling the wind in your hair, are just a few.
Learning mindfulness techniques can be challenging, and Ben needed help with developing some skills. With the support of the CLNB Outcomes Fund, Ben now uses the Muse headband technology that pairs with his iPad. The app collects information to show him how he is doing so he can measure his improvements. This technology is used daily!

Our Photographer: Ryan Marshall
Ryan Marshall has been a local photographer for the past decade. His portfolio includes weddings, family portraits, maternity sessions, musical events, business photography and few pretty cool close up photos of shadflies. (You can’t get more North Bay than that.) Ryan is also a local high school math teacher who has taught at Almaguin, Widdifield, Parry Sound and Chippewa. He is currently teaching life management, a class of which he claims to be the oldest student.
Ryan's photography style can be described as eclectic and full of life. He aims for his photos to tell a story and spark a reaction as they come to life.
The most exciting part of this project for Ryan is the oppurtunity to create sixteen jaw dropping portraits of the wonderful gentlemen who are brave enough to be first responders.
