<h3>Press Release</h3> <p>Released: October 27, 2003</p> <p>Marie Reed of Kamloops was elected the Board of Directors of Canadian Parents for French - BC & Yukon Branch at the association's recent Annual General Meeting held in Whitehorse, Yukon.</p> <p>Founded in 1977, Canadian Parents for French is the national network of volunteers dedicated to the promotion and creation of French second language learning opportunities for young Canadians. BC has by far more CPF members than any other province in Canada organized in 46 Chapters across British Columbia. Our present membership total of 5,400 represents more than a third of the individual CPF members in Canada. Kamloops has one of the most active chapters in British Columbia. </p> <p>In the 2002-03 school year, CPF-BC & Yukon staff, parents and volunteers organized or helped organize 127 socio-cultural events, 8 summer camps and 78 information sessions for parents, made 42 presentations to school districts, issued over 100 Provincial and local media releases, offered 36 post-secondary scholarships to French Second Language students, held 270 Chapter and Branch regular meetings across 46 chapters and managed eight major partnerships with Francophone organizations. We have also established local and provincial partnerships with corporations such as BC Gas, Alcan, Tembec, Abitibi and BC Hydro. CPF-BC & Yukon's 5,400 members contributed some 75,000 volunteer hours to this effort.</p> <p>"Marie Reed is a wonderful addition to the CPF-BC & Yukon Board of Directors. Since 1994, she has been a leader of the Kamloops chapter of CPF. Marie has organized countless socio-cultural activities and proved to be a superb spokesman for French Immersion and Core French programs in her home school community. She has developed an expertise in French Second language learning and has served the community in countless volunteer activities. Marie will not only be an outstanding representative of our board based on her ability and experience, she will represent the Thompson-Okanagan very well," noted CPF-BC & Yukon President Melanie Tighe-Lovsin.</p> <p>Marie Reed joins Melanie Tighe-Lovisn of Vernon, Sherry Taylor of Williams Lake, Laurin Shadforth of Burnaby, Heather Newman of Dawson Creek and Mary Ann Annable of Whitehorse on the CPF-BC & Yukon Board of Directors.</p> <p align="center">-30-</p> <p>For more information, please contact Adrian Dix, Executive Director, CPF-BC & Yukon <br>phone: 604-524-0134 or 1-800-665-1222 <br>or fax: 604-524-0135 .</p> <p> <br> </p> <p class="updated">The information on this page was late updated: October 29, 2003. <br> This page was last modified October 29, 2003.</P> <div align="center"> </td> <td width="80px"> </td> </tr> </table> <p class="contact"> <a class="ccontact" href="../../Other/FramePages/f_reachus.shtml" target="_top">Contact CPF - BC & Yukon</a> | <a class="ccontact" href="mailto:webmaster@cpf.bc.ca">Report Website Problems</a> | <a class="ccontact" href="../../Other/FramePages/f_termsConditions.shtml" target="_top">Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy</a></p> <div class="copyrgt"> Copyright © 2000-2006 Canadian Parents for French-British Columbia & Yukon Branch <br> All rights reserved. </div> <p> </p> </div> </td></tr></table> </body>
