Annual Northern Lights Regional Health Foundation Festival of Trees

Written by

What a great weekend full of events to kick off the Christmas Season in Fort McMurray.  The NLRHF’s Festival of Trees is a huge event that people wait for every year, and this year was no different.  All the events were sold out and a huge success – the final total raised for the Fort McMurray Hospital was $640,000.

One of the greatest examples of what an amazing community we live it is the Fort Mac Hockey Bros.  Parker and Cruz Flett came up with the idea to raise money for kids in the outlying areas of Wood Buffalo so that they could have access to the game of hockey, a game that the boys are passionate about.   They’ve spent the past few months collecting hockey equipment and money to donate.   Dave made a donation to the boys for their cause.  When it was all said and done, the boys raised $46,000 for hockey equipment, and their tree raised $100,000 (an all-time record) for the hospital at the gala on Saturday night thanks to 2 combined incredible bids.

Tuccaro was more than happy to purchase 2 trees beautifully designed by Allison Flett representing indigenous people and issues.

The Gratitude Campaign

On Thursday, October 25th, Tuccaro Group owner Dave Tuccaro announced a $250,000 donation the Northern Lights Health Foundation’s Gratitude Campaign.

The donation will go toward the creation of Minimally Invasive Surgical Suites.  These suites will allow more surgeries to be completed here at home, rather than patients having to travel to have these procedures done.  Healing can begin quicker at home, and at a much lower cost to our residents.

Fort McMurray is our home, and our greatest resource is our people, ensuring proper, best in class health care benefits all of us.  As an honourary and past Board Member of the Northern Lights Regional Health Centre Dave, and all of us at the Tuccaro Group are committed to the continued improvement of health care in our region.

Discovery of a Lifetime

Written by

On June 7, 2018 NTS Geotechnical Instrumentation Technician Scott Fisher made the discovery of a lifetime. Amongst the rocks of the North Mine at Syncrude Canada, he found the fossil remains of a plesiosaur, a marine reptile that lived during the Mesozoic era. A team of experts from the Royal Tyrrell Museum in Drumheller came to the site, extracted the fossils and transported them to the museum where they will spend the next 2-3 years analyzing the remains.

“This discovery has been very exciting for myself and my family,” says Scott. “It has been quite the experience to be part of Syncrude history in this way.”

The NTS family is excited too!
