The Gemini Screen Printing & Embroidery Volunteer of the Year award for 2009 is presented to a very deserving winner … Michael Irvine.
Michael has been a long-time promoter of running on PEI. This August will see the 10th running of the Friendship Run for Prince County Hospital. This race combines two of Michael’s passions, running and health care. Michael has donated all the proceeds of this race to the Prince County Hospital over the years to help ensure good quality health care for the residents of western PEI
While the fundraising is important, Michael equally values the race for its promotion of an
|
active, healthy life-style for his community. Michael is one doctor who practices what he preaches. Michael has competed in numerous marathons and is a regular at the RoadRunner races. He usually finishes in the top ten in any of the races he enters.
We cannot present this award to Michael without acknowledging the support he receives from his wife Marta. We all know that one of the main reasons the Friendship run is so well attended each year, is because of the wonderful spread of food that Marta provides after the run. I can still taste the garlic!
With the hectic lifestyle associated with being a physician, Michael still finds the time to train, race, organize and give back to his community. For these reasons, we are pleased to recognize Michael Irvine with the Gemini Screen Printing and Embroidery Volunteer-of-the-Year award.
Congratulations Michael!
