The Man Who Inspired The Award
Paul Dwight Renwick taught at Henry Janzen School in Regina from 1982 to 1987. As a physical education instructor, he excelled in his field. Most students found his physical education program stimulating and challenging and his extra curricular activities exciting and exhilarating. Paul's' program was recognized and received the CAHPERD QDPE Award in 1987. Paul's' life was cut short and he died of cancer June 22, 1987.
SPEA Involvement
Paul was actively involved with SPEA. He was president-elect in 1981-82, president in 1982-83 and past president in 1983-84. During his year as president Paul foresaw a need for SPEA to be much more than a conference planning body. He envisioned and proposed a three year plan for the organization and laid the foundation for SPEA to become the major voice for physical educators across Saskatchewan. From 1985-1987 Paul assumed the role of part-time executive director where he pursued sources of grant money to enable the organization to pursue provincial initiatives. Paul's' foresight and vision left a legacy for physical educators in Saskatchewan and for SPEA as an organization.
