Congratulations to Lesley Page for being awarded the East Canada Sections ‘Governor Service Award’.
She is someone that is never content to just go along with the ride, instead she jumps in 100% sharing her passion for aviation.
Lesley has organizing programs such as the FCC 99s ‘Girls Take Flight’ and COPAs flights for kids… introducing thousands of our youth to aviation. Lesley has been a mentor to young girls starting their flight training and follows through with them throughout their flying careers. She sits on the executive for the Northern Lights Aero Foundation, and is very involved with COPA.
Throughout the year you can find Lesley introducing females to aviation with flights in her airplane and going out in the community speaking about aviation.
Lesley has been dedicated to the Ninety-Nines, serving as a volunteer, a mentor, the past Chair of the First Canadian Chapter, and these past four years as the ECS Secretary.
She has been recognized with numerous awards – and it is my pleasure to honour Lesley this year, as the recipient for the East Canada Section’s 2020 Governors Award.
