Maggie Connolly Award winner Travis Greene The Maggie Connolly award is in memory of an amazing public health nurse that made a positive im- pact to the Halton Hills community. Travis Greene is the recipient of the Maggie Connolly award. He is a member of the Christ the King mentorship program where he is not only exceptional in this role but he goes above and beyond the tasks asked of him. He is truly a leader among leaders and had taken on a huge undertaking by dedicating his time to work with younger students to aid in their transition to high school. Travis is one of the most genuine stu- dents, he cares and is concerned for others and his unwavering morals make him an individual that ex- emplifi es what it means to be a positive role model and a defi nite leader.
