YCL Boat Cruise Highlights
On Thursday, June 21, 2018 the Young Construction Leaders (YCL) embarked on their annual networking boat cruise event with over 130 young professionals in attendance.

After wrapping up registration, attendees boarded the Yankee Lady III and set sail for an evening filled with lots of fun, laughter and delicious appetizers. The disc jockey on board, kept the group entertained with nonstop music, playing a mixed of old to some of the latest and hottest hits. The weather was gorgeous, and it was the perfect day to experience the beauty of the Toronto Skyline.

Thank you to everyone who attended, we look forward to hosting you all again!
