| MR.
BUTLER: |
Corporal M. Brazil, Royal Canadian Legion Branch #9 and
Holy Redeemer Elementary School, both from the Town of
Spaniard’s Bay are to be commended for their act of
remembrance each November. The highlight of their
activities is the awarding of the Gary Churchill
Memorial Scholarship Award.
Each year the Grade 9 students visit the Legion and
are asked to be a part of the Remembrance Day project.
All essays are judged by a panel of teachers and the
first and second place winners return to the Royal
Canadian Legion as guest speakers to their Remembrance
Day dinner.
This year’s winners were Kyleigh Mercer and
Danielle Fry. The content and imagination expressed by
both students was outstanding.
Runner-up, Danielle Fry, received $100, plus a
plaque; while the winner, Kyleigh Mercer, received $200,
a plaque and the Gary Churchill Memorial Trophy.
I ask all hon. members to join me in congratulating
both winners and sponsors in this annual event to pay
tribute to those who serve to protect our Province and
country.
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. |
