Congratulations to Mikaela Cheslock, our 2019 Student Award Winner
Mikaela Cheslock, a second year student at Laurentian University - Université Laurentienne, first heard about the SudburyROCKS!!! Marathon while she was in high school. Between specializing in Labour Studies, minoring in Law and Justice, and curling competitively, she also volunteers as a Race Marshall for the SudburyROCKS!!! Marathon. In her spare time, Mikaela volunteers at Health Sciences North / Horizon Santé-Nord and Ronald McDonald House of Canada.
“For the past two years I have been volunteering for the SudburyROCKS!!! Marathon as a Race Marshall. Being able to help with an event that benefits our community through the Northern Cancer Foundation and Health Sciences North Foundation, is an amazing experience. From my time volunteering at Health Sciences North I see the impact and support that each donation brings. Knowing that we, as a community, can help support each cause through events such as this motivates me to volunteer. I’d like to thank SudburyROCKS!!! Marathon for awarding me this bursary. It’s been able to help me continue my studies and continue volunteering in our community. Volunteering will always be an important activity to me and I hope to be able to help with this event for many years to come. I encourage other Laurentian University students to consider joining the race as a runner or as a volunteer this year.” Mikaela Cheslock, recipient of the 2018 SudburyROCKS!!! Marathon Laurentian University Bursary
