Medicine Hat, AB–A big honour for a local lawyer.

Cameron Kemp has been named the 103rd National President of Kin Canada. This is one of Canada’s strictly Canadian service organizations which boasts 380 clubs and more than 4,600 volunteer members nationwide.

Kemp’s appointment came during the recent National Convention in Hamilton, Ontario where Kin Canada was found in 1920.

Kemp is well known locally for his dedication to Medicine Hat and the surrounding communities through his volunteer and service contributions. A proud member of The Kinsmen Club of Medicine Hat since 2005, Cameron is honoured to have the opportunity to lead Kin Canada’s National Board of Directors and promote an Association that raised over $25.9 million dollars over the last year by following its slogan of “Serving the Community’s Greatest Need”.

“My father taught my brother and I to skate during the FREE public skating that our local club has sponsored since 1984. My mother also took us to The Kinsmen Club of Medicine Hat Children’s Library where we spent time reading and participating in their various children’s programs. We also learned to play T-ball and toboggan in Kin Coulee Park. Like so many other young people in our community, Kin played a key role in my development. I am thrilled to be a member of The Kinsmen Club of Medicine Hat and to be able to give back and help create opportunities in our community for others” shares Cameron.

Since joining Kin in 2005, Cameron has remained a highly active and motivated member in The Kinsmen Club of Medicine Hat, as well as all other levels of the Association. He has served in many club leadership roles, including as Club President in 2012-2013, has chaired numerous Club fundraisers and service projects, and has sponsored over 30 new members.
