Not only is tomorrow a special day to recognize the contributions made by auxiliary volunteers, we will also be celebrating the PEIAHA's 50th Anniversary. We have a lovely day planned and are expecting a great turnout from auxiliary members across the Island.
As a very special bonus, we are pleased to announce that the Honourable Marion Reid will be our guest speaker. A member of the Order of Canada and the Order of PEI, Mrs. Reid was the first female speaker of the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island and later the first female Lieutenant Governor of Prince Edward Island. She accomplished all of this while being a busy mother of eight children, grandmother and volunteer. We are guaranteed to have an interesting and entertaining afternoon with Mrs. Reid!
To mark this milestone anniversary, our PEIAHA history has been updated. Our collective history goes back 50 years, but two of our member auxiliaries have roots that go back more than a century. We are so proud of what we have achieved.
