Acknowledgement 2-20(1): Morgan Stabel, National Youth Bowling Champion

Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I'm excited and proud to acknowledge Frame Lake resident Morgan Stabel who recently won the national youth bowling championship while representing the NWT in the senior girls division. Morgan is the top Canadian five-pin bowler in her category, and she is the first NWT resident to win gold at a national bowling event in Canada in 22 years.

Mr. Speaker, that is an incredible feat and an inspiration for all NWT athletes. Congratulations, Morgan, on your big achievement.

Speaker: MR. SPEAKER

Thank you, Member from Frame Lake. Acknowledgements. Member from Range Lake.
