Mookie Morris – Canadian Idol Top 5
Mookie Morris played his minor hockey in the GTHL with Reid Acton and Jordan So. This young man has proved he has more skills then just putting a puck in the net. Morris was a Top 5 finalists on the television show Canadian Idol.
For parents with talented young athletes in hockey, lacrosse and their respective sports – please keep in mind some of these athletes have other talents as well. At Crossroads it is important for us to encourage and bring out some of these talents, so these kids can become well rounded individuals.
Some times we need to let kids just be kids and do some of the things they really enjoy doing.
