The Breakfast Bash helps raise the funding required to ensure Halton Student Nutrition Programs remain strong and sustainable while celebrating the 2024/25 school year with our school board and school partners, volunteers and community partners. The Bash’s goal is to raise $95,000 to support Student Nutrition Programs in Halton. Achieving that target will help ensure over 95,000 students across Halton in 152 schools continue to have access to healthy, nutritious food at school. 

Guests get to participate in HFFT’s unique breakfast Marketplace, enjoying delicious breakfast options from our Marketplace Vendors from restaurants across Halton such as Joe Dog’s Gasbar Grill, Oakville Conference Centre, Harpers Landing, Martini House, Appleby College, Rust Bistrobar, Pur & Simple Burlington North, Mary's Muffins and St. Ignatius of Loyola CSS who are bringing the blender bikes to make delicious smoothies! 

The Breakfast Bash is a wonderful morning where more than 400 supporters of Student Nutrition Programs gather to share stories of inspiration, celebrate milestones, and where HFFT gets to recognition of all those who help make these programs happen. 

The event is open to the public with the purchase of a ticket.

Our agency supports people with developmental disabilities to develop skills towards independence and participate in meaningful opportunities; striving for community inclusion.

Our organization provides support to over 300 people in supported living, community participation supports and employment services as well as 300 staff and volunteers, all of whom are dedicated to ensuring that everyone can enjoy their right to lead active and productive lives.

CLO strongly believes in the importance of advocacy for those that are vulnerable or underrepresented and we empower the people we support to advocate for their rights of equality and inclusion within our local community.

Sophisticated Swing: 25 years of Big Band Magic

07:00 PM — 10:00 PM

Sophisticated Swing is a big band consisting of nineteen musicians and vocalists from the Golden Horseshoe area who work hard to create an outstanding big band sound. We love to play and sing music that audiences want to hear.

Founded in 1999 by trombonist Carl Hamilton, Sophisticated Swing offers a new approach to musical entertainment. Here, finally, is a big band that plays more than the traditional swing music of the 40's and 50's. We also have a large repertoire of the best tunes of the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's and to the present.

Our concert "Sophisticated Swing: 25 Years of Big Band Magic" is a captivating celebration of the enduring allure and evolution of big band music over a quarter-century. This genre, deeply rooted in the vibrant jazz scene of the early 20th century, has continually captivated audiences with its dynamic rhythms, rich harmonies, and the sheer spectacle of a large ensemble in full swing. Over the past 25 years, big band music has experienced a renaissance, with musicians infusing contemporary elements while honouring the classic sounds of legendary figures such as Duke Ellington, Count Basie, and Benny Goodman. This era has seen a revival not just in performance, but also in the innovative arrangements and compositions that keep the genre fresh and relevant. "Sophisticated Swing" pays homage to this musical journey, highlighting the influential bands and artists who have contributed to the genre's lasting legacy and its ability to unite listeners across generations with its joyous, sophisticated sound.

Pride Event & CHET Showcase

11:00 AM — 01:00 PM

Musket Transport and its affiliated training school, Commercial Heavy Equipment Training Ltd. (CHET), are marking Pride Month with a special event that puts equity and inclusion in the driver’s seat.

On Wednesday, June 25, CHET’s Burlington campus will host the Pride Event & CHET Showcase, bringing together community partners, career seekers, and allies from across Halton and Hamilton. The event, running from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, aims to break stereotypes about the trucking industry and introduce attendees to opportunities in transportation and logistics.

The trucking industry has long been perceived as male-dominated, but there is no place for toxic masculinity or exclusion in today’s workforce,” said Sophia Sniegowski Begidzhanov, Corporate Communications Officer for Musket Transport. “At Musket and CHET, we are committed to fostering an inclusive and equitable environment that welcomes individuals of all gender identities, sexual orientations, ethnicities, and backgrounds.

Guests will get a hands-on look at CHET’s AZ and DZ training vehicles, while licensed drivers will have a chance to meet Musket’s recruitment and driver management teams about job opportunities in the region.

Here's what to expect:

  • Hands-on equipment showcase – featuring our AZ and DZ training programs
  • Ice cream truck treats and hot dogs on us!
  • A welcoming space to build relationships and explore collaboration

Founded in 1997, CHET is a registered Career College that offers Class A and Class D commercial training, designed for students from all backgrounds and skill levels. The Burlington showcase is the latest initiative in a broader effort by CHET and Musket to create space for underrepresented groups in an industry historically lacking diversity.

We believe that driving is not just a profession, but a lifestyle choice, and no personal identity should ever determine your success or earning potential in this industry,” said Sniegowski Begidzhanov. “Together, we can build a future for trucking that’s inclusive, proud, and empowering for all.

The free event is open to 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals, community organizations, and supporters, and will also feature networking opportunities and interactive equipment demos. Those interested in attending can register through Eventbrite.
