****************************************************

 

Irving Oil Corp.

Irving Oil has supported this event for a number of years.  They not only donate the gift cards for the top fundraiser awards, they also promote the event amongst their drivers and allow their equipment to be used for the convoy.

Tony Michaud and his Little Melodies Band

How can we thank Tony Michaud and his Little Melodies Band for performing at the event for the past few year.  The kids get so excited and always get up and dance to their tunes.  It is with pleasure that we present her with this plaque as a token of our appreciation for her time and efforts.

Doris Gresick

We’ve seen Doris at our Committee meetings and doing the raffle with Connie at the event.   Doris has served on the Committee that organizes this event for a number of years and it is with pleasure that we present her with this plaque as a token of our appreciation for her time and efforts.

Everett MacMaster

Everett has been along time supporter of this event going back to when MPDA and Lions first joined hands to make this a success.  He has organized and worked on the driving competition part of the day and always made sure we had the FedEx trailer available for a stage before we were able to get an inside location.  Before I read the plaque, I’d like to ask for your prayers for Everett as he is suffering from a grave illness and we hope he recuperates to be able to help us out for years to come.
