RANDY THIBAULT MEMORIAL AWARD

This award will be presented to someone other than a player that has made an outstanding
contribution to hockey on Manitoulin Island. This person has gone above and beyond the call of
duty to promote and represent hockey on our island.

Randy Thibault was a long standing member of Manitoulin Minor and Western Manitoulin Minor
Hockey Associations. Randy was a coach, a mentor, an executive member and most
importantly had a true passion for hockey. Randy’s knowledge and commitment to the game of
hockey on our island was and still is second to none. Randy’s calm, cool nature made him
easy to be around and very easy to approach regarding any hockey issue. Randy’s ultimate
goal was to see kids play and enjoy hockey on Manitoulin Island just like he did.

April 15th of each year is the deadline for receipt of nominations for the Randy Thibault
Memorial award.
