The program, which launched in 1999, celebrat- ed its final award ceremo- ny in May when NBA standout and Kitchener native Jamal Murray won what turns out to be the fi- nal award. "We've been looking to the community, to charity groups, to university and college programs and many other volunteers, to sort of continue to support and organize the program, (but) without much suc- cess," said chair of the committee, Jean Howitt. "So (as) committee mem- bers, with really heavy hearts, we decided to bid it farewell." Howitt says the com- mittee wasn't lacking pas- sion, though, and remains "awestruck" at the level of diverse athletic excellence in the community. "One of the memories that I have is that, each and every year, we have been able to put forth the high, high standard of ath- letic excellence for our community, and we're re- ally proud of that," Howitt said. "The other thing that we're really proud of is that nominees that we did put forth, it didn't matter their gender, age, any of that sort thing. What we were able to do was look at excellence in sport; that was one of things that was very unique about pro- gram. "So we had just so many types (of) different ath- letes, and different types of sport, and different ages and gender. I always do say that; somebody would ask me, 'How many women or how many men?' And I would never know the an- swer, because we viewed everyone as an athlete, so that was something we were really proud of." The award served the areas of Kitchener-Water- loo, Wilmot, Wellesley and Woolwich. Past winners of the award include boxing star Lennox Lewis, Olympic figure skaters Andrew Poje and Kaitlyn Weaver, and NHL star Mark Schei- fele.
