Volunteer Prize Draw
This week's winner of the volunteer gift basket is Treana Clarke. Treana has two children at Lochside; Carys in grade 5 and Rhys in grade 4. Treana says she had the pleasure of working on the grade 5 fundraising committee with an amazing team of mums. Together they raised close to $8,000 to send the grade 5s to Camp Thunderbird. Treana spends her weekdays putting the “elation” in intergovernmental relations as a manager for the provincial Ministry of Finance. Weekends allow time for passions including Stand Up Paddle Boarding, bike riding, cheering on Carys playing basketball and softball, and listening to Rhys play the guitar and perform magic tricks, impersonations and stand up comedy. Thank you Treana for all of your time and work on Grade 5 fundraising!
