At the annual Poster & Literary awards night, April 1st at Royal Canadian Legion Branch 412, a standing room only crowd was on hand to receive their awards and support the winners.
Twenty-one schools participated this year, and there were a total of 339 entries. One hundred and one Branch level winners were awarded their certificate and a cheque for their efforts. Several students had their work go on to be successful at Zone, then District levels, and Phoebe Zhang had the 2nd-place win at the Provincial level.
Thanks to all of the students who submitted entries, and of course to the teachers who promoted the contest within their school.
Also at this event, the 2015 Major Community donations were presented -
Poppy Fund Administrator Cathy McIntyre presented a Certificate of Appreciation to Bonnie Illebrun, for her many years of hard work organising the annual mail-out campaign.
Chairman Jim Meyer announced the following donations already presented -
Total "major donations" from the 2015 Campaign were $114,866.73.
Donations of this magnitude were only possible due to the generosity of the good people of Kitchener and Waterloo, and we thank you sincerely.
