This past weekend was Homecoming at Wilfrid Laurier University (WLU). I attended the School of Business & Economics (SBE) from 1993 – 1997, were I double majored in Economics and Accounting. As an alumni of Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, I enjoy going back to take in some of the events.
Friday was the Dean’s Alumni Golf Classic. It was wet, windy, and cold, but we made the best of it and were able to get in a partial round of golf. The tournament was in support of awards for deserving students within SBE. The Kitchener office of Hoyes, Michalos & Associates Inc. sponsored a hole for this event to show our involvement to support local students.
On Sunday, I took part in the 2nd Annual Laurier Loop (a running race). The race is part of the Waterloo Running Series and was a 2.5 KM circuit through beautiful Waterloo Park which started and finished on the track in the Laurier University Stadium. In this event, Ian Martin and myself joined two others in a 4 person relay team to run a 10km relay race, we each ran a 2.5 loop as fast as we could – our final combined time was 43 minutes, 26 seconds. This race was raising funds for Laurier’s Movement Disorders Research & Rehabilitation Centre (MDRC). Once again, thanks to Hoyes, Michalos & Associates Inc. in Kitchener for sponsoring 3 staff members in this event.
