An Important Thank-You...

It is important to MODS that we take a moment and recognize some important people and partners that have been a major support to our sport, community and staff during this pandemic. The group that makes up Sport Manitoba has been so important to us and we want to say thank you to the different tiers that make up our provincial sport body…

We thank the Sport Manitoba Board of Directors, who are volunteers and find themselves in the same position as the volunteer boards that make up the sports within their framework… volunteers still have jobs, families and commitments during this pandemic, and the ability for them to find personal time to help support sport and the organizations within the province is amazing and deeply valued. To all the volunteers who meet, report and work on behalf of Sport Manitoba, we recognize your amazing volunteer service and time.

We thank all the staff within the Sport Manitoba family. From those who welcome us with smiles at the front door when we come into the building, mail room or coffee shop, to the unsung heroes keeping the building operational and safe during a pandemic. The athletic facility, giving our community a place to safely work out and engage physically, the second floor clinic offering services to those in need, all the way up to the 5th floor and those that help all aspects of Sport Manitoba function and thrive… The Sport Manitoba staff have worked so hard to support our sports, to update us and meet with us regularly (always with a smile and positive attitude) as well as taking time to hear our questions and offer advice… thank you so much for everything you have done to help us through this tough time.

AND… a special thank you to Dana and Jaclyn from Sport Manitoba. The two of you have been so important to our organization through this pandemic. The work you have put in to support our organization and keep us informed of grant opportunities, funding, CEWS and our transition to new accounting programs, you have been so important to the office, the board and our membership. We are so thankful we have you in our lives and as part of our team.

Words often aren’t enough, but for now they are a start. Please join us in celebrating the amazing people that make up Sport Manitoba and everything they have done to help us during COVID-19.
