The PSHOF is extremely proud to congratulate Marilynne Bellisle "SENIOR VOLUNTEER OF THE YEAR 2009".

Marilynne has played a big role in the success of the Penetanguishene Sports Hall of Fame gift shop, not only does she co-ordinates the staffing, she volunteers her own time as well.

She was able to handle this task with ease as she volunteered at the Penetanguishene General Hospital gift shop and worked extremely hard assisting with garage sales, penny raffles and numerous other fundraises to raise money for the hospital.

Back in 2001 Marilynne started her famous “Penny Raffles” at the Penetanguishene Winterama and these have continued on since then with everyone enjoying the fun.

Marilynne has been instrumental in a variety of fundraisers in our area, garage sales, M & M barbeques, tag days, silent auctions, charity fairs, “Le Dernion”, fashion shows, cash calendars, the sale of trees for the Annual Festival of Christmas trees and the list goes on.

She joined the Friends of Penetang Youth in 2000 and accepted the position of treasurer in 2002. She was part of this group when they raised $286 408. 58 and continues to volunteer with a variety of groups and organizations in our area.

Her family and many friends congratulate Marilynne on being selected for this very special award.

You have earned and deserve it.
