John Graham, Director of Public Affairs & Government Relations, Safeway Operations, Sobey’s Inc. has been made an Honourary Life Member of CurlManitoba. CurlManitoba President Kim Warburton made the presentation prior to the Safeway Championship final game Sunday afternoon in Brandon. Warburton cited Graham’s 20+ year career as CurlManitoba’s primary contact with Safeway/Sobey’s, his support for the sport of curling, and his leadership in helping CurlManitoba grow its provincial men’s championship event, the Safeway Championship (formerly the Safeway Select) from a provincial event into one of the world’s premier curling championship events. Graham briefly expressed his appreciation for the honour and then, typical of a man who doesn’t want the spotlight shined upon him, he turned the spotlight back to the competing Carruthers and McEwen teams as they prepared for their Safeway Championship final game showdown.
