Alessandra was the 2014 Youth Award of Merit recipient for demonstrating her leadership and
dedication towards the community. Alessandra was an honour role student, lead mentor and student

Peggy and Alessandra will proudly carry the Pan Am flame as the Township of King’s community

kilometres on the road and 15,000 kilometres by air.
