Open House & Ribbon Cutting Ceremony @ Bolton’s New Youth Centre

Operating under the auspices of the Optimist Club of Bolton, Che’s Place invites media, community supporters and friends to its “open house” and ribbon cutting ceremony - Sunday, February 5th. Che’s Place is Bolton’s new Youth Centre and honours the spirit, memory, and life of Francesco Molinaro.

Known to close friends and family as “Che” (pronounced “Ch-ehh”), Francesco Molinaro’s life was tragically taken May 21st, 2016 in Wasaga Beach. Please note: questions regarding the ongoing investigation will not be addressed at the open house.

Francesco had an immeasurable impact on the youth of Bolton. An outstanding young man, his untimely and senseless death left the community with immense emptiness and in deep sorrow. It has also brought the community together – Bolton’s youth in particular – who’ve been relentless in initiating and taking ownership in Che’s Place and establishing a lasting legacy.

While targeting youth aged 13 -18, Che’s Place is open to all – a safe, friendly, positive environment to meet, gather, and more. Join us in helping keep the memory of Francesco Molinaro alive and in standing together for the future of youth in our community. “Don’t’ cry for me; Smile for me”.
