In September I attended a 40th Anniversary celebration of the CWT-IB Recreation Commission. Yesterday I saluted the committee and four of its members for their longstanding service. Roland,Winston,Gordon and Wilfred have all been involved for all forty years. Imagine the hours, the tickets sold and bingo numbers called in that amount of time. online you can check it out at assembly.nl.ca MR. SPEAKER: The hon. the Member for the District of Bonavista North. MR. CROSS: Thank you, Mr. Speaker. I am proud to rise today to recognize the monumental achievement of a group of volunteers in my district. On September 20, I had the honour to attend the fortieth anniversary of the Centreville-Wareham-Trinity Indian Bay Recreation Committee. Long before three of the four towns amalgamated, these groups united their forces to tackle regional goals in recreation and sport. The current complement of members on the committee is nearly twenty, and attendance to meetings and events is very high and the agenda very active. The committee is a shining example for others around the Province, and they have been recognized over the years for their valiant efforts for the healthy recreational agenda they have been providing to the communities. There are four individuals who have been involved from the committees inception and have participated actively for the entire forty years. Winston Button, Gordon Hunt, Wilfred Wiseman, and Chairman Roland Button should be applauded for their long-standing commitment. Most of these members were also members of the predecessor groups and their involvement dates back nearly forty-three consecutive years. I ask all hon. members to join in a unified gesture of appreciation. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. SOME HON. MEMBERS: Hear, hear!
