Organization Name: Volunteer Lethbridge
Volunteer's Name: Jamie Prindle
About this volunteer: Never will you meet a more enthusiastic, vibrant and passionate young lady!
After just one encounter, you know that Jamie is destined for greatness.
Jamie was the driving force behind the success of this year's Catholic
Central High School's Santa's Anonymous Club. Threatened with closure due
to low membership numbers, she recruited 30 friends and saved the Club from
being disbanded. With the assistance of club members, Jamie put her time
and energy into organizing the "Jingle Bell Rock" dinner, dance and silent
auction. Under her guidance, the event doubled the projected dollar goal
and was able to provide twice as many hampers to families in need.
Jamie has been organizing, planning and creating a Wake-a-Thon that took
place on April 3rd. It was a resounding success and money raised will be
donated to the International Wheelchair Foundation.
In addition, Jamie has spent endless hours working with the cast and crew of
Catholic Central High School's theatre productions, and has volunteered with
Kids Help Phone Line, Rotary Dinner and the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
Jamie is a Leader of Tomorrow that we can all follow with confidence!

Volunteer's Name: Derek Kroetsch
About this volunteer: Dedication, commitment and a desire to do his best describes this 20 year
old University of Lethbridge student.
Derek has committed the past 11 years to the 4H Club, most recently as both
Assistant Leader and Camp Leader in the East Central 4H region. While
taking on a leadership role within the organization, Derek never fails to
lend a hand wherever it is needed, helping with events such as the beef
projects and at the local show and sale.
A strong dedication to community was demonstrated during Derek's time with
the Sir Alexander Galt Museum. Instrumental in the creation of a database
of Galt Babies-people born in the Galt Hospital-he often worked on the
database from home after already volunteering at the Museum throughout the
weekend. From an historical perspective, the database is invaluable; from a
fiscal standpoint, the database is an important tool that will be utilized
extensively in the Galt Museum's upcoming Capital
Campaign.

University of Lethbridge designed to support business/management students.
