Warm congratulations to the members of the Hamilton Police Male Chorus for their recent win on “Canada Sings”. Competing as The Hammer Cruisers they pledged their winnings to Project Concern, the in-house police charity, so that the money can be directed to local charities. This community can be proud of these big-hearted singers and their commitment to local causes. Well done guys!
