CAPSC asked schools in Calgary to nominate their top school volunteer parent or community member. Public schools from across the city nominated volunteers for recognition.  CAPSC received over 220 nominations for Volunteer of the Year. The top 10 volunteers were honoured at a reception in June, with city and provincial officials as well as school representatives and supporters there to commend them. Three received the title `Volunteer of the Year.` We had very strong support from the community of Calgary with more than 400 people in attendance. Mayor Nenshi joined us to congratulate the winners and commend all school volunteers. Lord Beaverbrook High School`s finest musicians provided excellent entertainment for this gala event.
