Paul White is congratulated by GYMC executive director Gabriella Currie-Ziegler after receiving the centre’s first annual Volunteer Award at the Bella Serata gala November 21, 2015. The Guelph Youth Music Centre Volunteer Award was created to honour individuals who have contributed exceptional volunteer activities in support of the GYMC. One award will be given each year in November.
Nominations may be put forward by any member of the GYMC board or the Executive Director of the GYMC. The annual award will be decided by a majority vote by the GYMC board. Paul is a past GYMC board member and chair, as well as one of original volunteers who literally built much of the GYMC structure over countless evenings and weekends. He continues to be seen, usually with tools in hand, doing repairs and upgrades around the centre. While many could have received the award, Paul was the unanimous first choice for this new recognition. Thanks for everything, Paul!
