Sunday, April 7, 2024, has been proclaimed as “Green Shirt Day” in the City of Humboldt, in honor of and in recognition of the “Logan Boulet Effect”, a legacy initiated by Logan Boulet, one of the 2017-18 Humboldt Broncos players who succumbed to his injuries 6 years ago on April 7th, 2018. His selfless act of organ donation inspired over 100,000 Canadians to become organ donors in the days and weeks that followed. Mayor Behiel encourages all citizens to wear green this April 7th to raise awareness of the importance of organ donation and to “have the kitchen table talk” with their families.
