I personally didn't know Jason, but he seemed like a wonderful person. I just wanted to say a special thanks to his family and his sister for letting me know more about Jason. I wasn't expecting this scholarship to have such meaning. Eventho I have never met him, he has still touched my life, by helping me pursue my dreams..."University of Calgary
2007 Grant Burwash 
University: University of Calgary Degree: BSc Kinesiology Program (in 5th year) Future Goals: * Physiotherapy or a similar field * Racing in World Cups Activities: * Competes in triathlons, duathlons, running races and the ITU (International draft legal races) circuit * Member of the Dinos cross country and track teams Grant says: "My name is Grant and I was the recipient of the Jason Lapierre scholarship this year. I wanted to personally thank everyone who donated to this fund and let you know it is going to good use. I had the privilege of meeting Jason a couple times, but cannot say that we knew each other that well. Mostly I knew Jay's friends in the triathlon world. With everything they have said about him over the years, it makes me wish I had a chance to get to know him. This scholarship is a wonderful legacy to Jason and I am glad it was put into place. Student athletes these days face rising costs in training and school, this scholarship is a welcome addition to any students budget. Thank you for helping me achieve my goals and I hope this scholarship and Jason's memory will continue to help others for many years to come." |
