Shawn Holroyd

Service Director & Club Support Director

Hello District 1,

I am going to start by telling you a little bit about myself. I have been a commercial route manager with Abell Pest Control for 10 years and currently studying for the Associate Certified Entomologist (ACE) designation (basically it means I know more about bugs than most people or technicians), I also run a successful DJ business Magic Light & Sound. You may have seen and heard me play at a few District and National conventions.

I have been a Kinsmen for 11 years and in my home club of The St. Thomas Kinsmen I have been membership director, awards chair, Vice President, and President. I have been Deputy Governor twice in Zone F and loved every minute of it, honestly my favourite year in Kin so far.

Somewhere in all that I have an absolutely amazing and understanding wife Amanda (29 for life). In the 17 years that we have been married, we have created and are raising 3 awesome boys Hayden (14) Tristan (12) and Jordan (7).

I am looking forward to this year as Governor with Carol van Rooy.

I am definitely looking forward to attending as much as possible and even somethings that seem impossible as I can in typical Shawn fashion hook up the Acme rocket to my back and do what I do best.... have FUN! I have found usually the best way to motivate people by making things fun. If you have read this far you know I work hard, and play hard, so it only stands to reason I party hard too.

Looking forward to coming to your meetings and events which I know the clubs will keep us posted on.

Yours in KIN,

Shawn Holroyd aka Bernie Lomax
Governor
