We would like to honour and remember Pam Harris, who recently passed away. Her dedication to Scouts Canada and the CNE’s Wheelchair and Scooter Service left a lasting mark on a program of the CNE that is vital to providing accessibility to our guests. Pam’s legacy lives on in the traditions she helped build and we are profoundly grateful for her years of service.
