ACCEPTED NOMINATIONS

Accepted Nominations:

Glynis Vennberg

My name is Glynis Vennberg, current President of PGMHA. I have sat on the board of directors for the past 6 seasons of hockey. There have been many great advances and changes within PGMHA and it's structure over the past few years. As an organization we have made great strides in developing a strategic plan, but I feel there is much more work to be done. As such I am letting my name stand for re-election for this upcoming season. I am excited to finish the job we have started and look forward to connecting with the membership this season.

Sincerely,
Glynis Vennberg

Deanna McLeod

Deanna McLeod is a current member of PGMHA's Board of Directors for PGMHA and has been since December 2018 first being appointed, then elected. Prior to that she was an active parent with her kid's teams since 2009 when they first started playing hockey. As a Director, she has played a role in modernizing our administrative processes including the onboarding of TeamSnap, electronic payments and our current website. She is excited about PGMHA's current direction under our Director of Hockey Operations, Steve O'Rourke. Continual improvement with the outcome of better hockey for everyone is what keeps her coming back. Her background in technology and being a mother of 4 kids who have played hockey with PGMHA since 2009 give her a skill set that can be implemented to effect positive change.

Arlene Nohr

As I have put forward my name for nomination, here is a little information about myself.
I am currently employed as a district youth care worker for School District 57. I specialize in compassionate and trauma based practices, bringing resources and information to schools in these two capacities. I also spend a great deal of my time working with those kids that struggle with behavior in the district.
Before moving into the school district, I was a correctional officer at the Prince George Youth Custody Centre for 17 years. Near the end of my career there, I worked directly with youth on probation within the community. It was an eye opening experience.

Both of my children play or played rep hockey. My oldest son has now aged out of youth sports and has chosen not to pursue junior hockey. PGMHA had done a good job of preparing him for those opportunities in spite of his decision not to move forward.
My daughter is currently a second year bantam player and her experience has been different. The number of girls playing hockey, diverse coaching and opportunities to develop, has been lacking in comparison to the opportunities provided to the boys. This is what has brought me to my decision to be part of minor hockey on a different level and my interest in the board.

As a parent, I chaired and organized 5-6 tournaments between the two teams. All were relatively successful raising an average of about $3-5000 from the raffle table alone

Hockey has been a huge part of the lives of my family, and a played a major part in the confidence, character, and friendships my children have developed as they have grown. I would like to continue to be a part of this sport for these and a multiple of other reasons.

Thanks for your consideration,
Arlene Nohr
