Conner Lukan Tighten Your Skates Award

A second of the four Humboldt memorial awards, this one tied to a field of study. It goes to a student heading for athletic therapy, physiotherapy, or another career that helps heal the human body, which is a much narrower gate than the hockey requirement beside it. You need a 70% average, service or volunteer involvement, demonstrated leadership, and participation in hockey. Conner Lukan spent his summers training on a dirt road by the lake at Slave Lake, and the award is built around that kind of dedication rather than around results.

The date here is Paul Kane's April 10. Bellerose collects the same award until June 1 and the other schools set their own, so the deadline you are held to is your own school's, not the one printed here. Ask your counsellor which applies to you.
