What an unforgettable day at Sharon Corners Retirement Residence!

They were thrilled to welcome East Gwillimbury hometown hero, Sam Bennett of the Florida Panthers, fresh off his Stanley Cup victory. Residents and team members alike were overjoyed to meet Sam, celebrate his incredible achievement, and even get up close with hockey’s most coveted prize.

From sharing behind-the-scenes championship stories to taking photos (and even touching the Cup!), the visit was filled with pride, nostalgia, and pure joy. For many lifelong hockey fans, it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

A huge thank you to Sam for bringing not just the Cup, but also his warmth, generosity and community spirit to our home. These memories will be treasured forever.
