Local Individuals Receive Volunteer Award
Mr. Wall:
— Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Today I rise to salute the outstanding
efforts of two individuals in my hometown of Swift Current. Bob
and Rachelle L’Heureux are the recipients of the 2002 Darrell
Weber Award for their support of the local Big Brother/Big Sisters
Organization. The award is presented to individuals who have made
an outstanding volunteer contribution to the promotion and
well-being of the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program. And that’s
exactly what Bob and Rachelle have done, Mr. Speaker. Twice now
the L’Heureuxs have donated a portion of the proceeds from their
annual L’Heureux Agencies fundraising golf tournament to the Big
Brothers and Big Sisters. And on top of that, Rachelle is a
volunteer with the in-school mentoring program. Mr. Speaker. I
think we’re all aware of the valuable role that the Big
Brothers/Big Sisters play in each and every one of our communities
and part of their success is because of the contribution of people
like the L’Heureuxs. Mr. Speaker, I would ask the entire Assembly
to thank them for their ongoing commitment and contribution to Big
Brothers/Big Sisters in the community of Swift Current.
Some Hon.
Members: Hear, hear! |
