Congratulations to the Keyano Huskies

Congratulations to the Keyano Huskies Men’s Soccer Team – including Tuc’s very own Gunner Kavindjima – on winning their 3rd consecutive ACAC Championship this past October and for their 4th place finish at the CCAA Men’s Soccer National Championship this past weekend.

Gunner, originally from Namibia, came to Fort McMurray this past summer and is attending Keyano College and hopes to become a Journeyman Heavy Duty Mechanic.  He is also working here at Tuc’s Contracting, gaining valuable experience in our shop and learning about his desired field of interest.

Aboriginal Veterans Day is commemorated on November 8th

This past Thursday our senior management attended Syncrude Canada’s annual Aboriginal Community Luncheon, honouring the Aboriginal men and women for their important wartime contributions.  The First Nations, Métis and Inuit people have a long and proud tradition of military service to our country and it is estimated that more than 12, 000 Indigenous members served in the First and Second World Wars and the Korean War.

The Tuccaro Group of Companies recognizes and appreciates the selfless sacrifices made by these brave individuals who have given to their community, their nation and future generations.

Aboriginal Veterans Day is commemorated on November 8.
