Kinsmen Club announces Citizen of the Year
The 2013 Prince Albert Citizen of the Year is a name most residents should recognize.
Lyle Karasiuk, who is head of public affairs at Parkland Ambulance, was chosen based on his numerous volunteer activities in the community. Those activities include Relay for Life, the upcoming Saskatchewan Winter Games, and the Pineview Furnishings Campaign.
“It was totally unexpected,” said Karasiuk when describing how he felt when he heard the news. “It is certainly gratifying that people think what I did in the community was worthy of such an important recognition.”
Karasiuk was born and raised in Prince Albert. He said there is no one activity that he enjoys more than the others.
