Young says ‘Big Kevin’ was instrumental in connecting Correction Services Canada with the Emerald Society in New York City. Kevin was a correctional officer who worked out of Albany, New York. Ten band members from Fenbrook’s Institution in Gravenhurst will be at the parade on Monday in honour of Kevin.
