The scholarship committee of the Richardson Pioneer Gold Wing AAA hockey club have reviewed all scholarship applications and would like to announce the scholarship recipients.
The committee wants to thank all graduating players for their commitment, dedication and leadership that they have displayed both on and off the ice as members of the Gold Wings. Each graduate was thanked for mentoring new Gold Wing players, as well as many WMH players in the efforts to improve their hockey skills.
All applicants were commended for their education achievements and all of them are wished continued success as they continue their education. The committee trusts that 小蓝视频 a member of the Gold Wings has offered a firm foundation for future careers and relationships.
The Scholarship recipients are Dakota Bowler, Reese Pittman and Kate Goranson.
Dakota played four years with the AAA Gold Wings. She will be attending the Indiana Institute of Tecnology and working towards her Bachelor of Science degree in criminal justice.
Reese played three years with the Gold Wings and was voted 鈥淐aptain鈥� by her peers in 20/21. Reese will attend Lakeland College this fall enrolled in Elementary Education.
Kate was a AAA Gold Wing for four years. She is attending the U of S in the fall enrolled in the Edwards School of Business.
Each recipient will receive a $1000 scholarship from the legacy scholarship fund of the 2016 Esso Cup.
As the last two seasons were cut short due to the pandemic, the committee felt the graduating players were not able to fully showcase their hockey skills. The seasons were particularly frustrating for the grads.
Because all of the graduating players were deserving of awards and acknowledgement of their efforts, the committee has approved to award two bursaries this year. Each bursary will be for $1,000 and will be awarded under the same terms as the Scholarships.
The bursary recipients are Kira Barham and Karleigh MacKenzie.
Kira played the past three seasons with the Gold Wings. She is enrolled in Elementary Education at Mount Royal University.
Karleigh is originally from Estevan, and played with the AAA Gold Wings since the 2019/2020 season. She is enrolled in Clinical Esthetician studies at Lakeland College.
