           Special thanks to our sponsors and participants for another successful event! We have sponsored many local charity's with            revenue from shark sales, sponsorship and participation. Skate Yarmouth was a major benefactor in our infancy.

           Then came the veterans van, the Hope Centre van, Crime Stoppers, Y.M.C.A. summer camp, Yarmouth Ground Search            & Rescue, and Yarmouth Development Corporation.

           The local chapter of the M.S. society, Maternal Child Care unit of our local hospital.

           I am sure I have missed a few but these are all I can recall right now.

           During the Yarmouth Shark Scrambles ten years of operation we have given over seventy thousand dollars to local            organizations. That is something for the Yarmouth Shark Scramble committee, Sponsors, and participants to be very            proud of.

HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL NEXT YEAR
