Ruby Downing Award Recipients
Outstanding Member of the Community
Ruby Downing was a volunteer within the CMHA for years. Her son Henry managed and coached several teams over a period of time as well. Brian and Ginny Taylor have generously donated this trophy every year in honour of Ruby, for all the work Henry and Ruby have done within the organization. Henry was instrumental in the Skate 88 fundraiser event which raised over $200,000 that year from local merchants and and sponsors. This money was donated to the town to help build Garnet B. Rickard arena.
