MostDedicatedProgramAssistantAward

Candidate:SusanHelperTheBestSkatingClub

Nominatedby:SharonMarker(coach)7298832emailaddress.comSusan started babysitting for us several years ago. She has always been a reliable and mature young lady. She is always interested in our children, both when she is babysitting and also anytime she sees them. She has walked to school with us, helped the kids at skating and even makes special treats for them at Halloween. Our kids have always thought of Susan as someone special to them. We think she is an outstanding person and an excellent role model in the community. CanSkate Parent, June Jones ToWhomItMayConcern:
