Now in its second year, award recognizes and provides funds to two local athletes pursuing post-secondary education
The families of Kyle Vanderburg and Don Gagnon are pleased to announce that applications are now open for the second annual Vanderburg and Gagnon Memorial Coaches Award.
The $1,000 scholarships will be granted to two students with a passion for hockey who are entering their first year of university or college, the families said in a news release. Kyle Vanderburg had the honour of coaching alongside Don and was a tremendous role model to the young athletes that he coached and played with.
“We are both proud and excited to be able to offer the Don Gagnon Memorial Coaches award to a young hockey player that embodies all the skills and passion that Don possessed for the sport of hockey,” the Gagnon family says. “Having been such a prominent figure in the hockey community, this will be a great way for us to ensure that his legacy lives on and continues to help and touch the lives of young hockey players in Sault Ste. Marie.
