2010 Winner

Daniel Oberton

My name is Daniel Oberton.  I graduated from St. Paul's High School in June of 2010 with honours.  I'm presently in my first year at the University of Manitoba taking mostly Science courses. I hope to pursue a career in the medical field.

A major extra-curricular activity I've been involved in is chess.  I was St. Paul's High School's chess champion for four consecutive years.  I have won several provincial titles and have been part of the Manitoba provincial chess team.  I have also competed at the national level.

I have been involved in many community activities both inside and outside of the Italian community.  I have volunteered for several years at the Holy Rosary Church.  I helped when the church had social functions for the catechism classes and their families.  I have also volunteered at the Misericordia Hospital where I was a recreation supervisor for the residence of the hospital.

I would like to thank the Lupa Di Roma for presenting me with their scholarship. It was both an honour and privilege to receive this scholarship.
