It is with great honor and deep appreciation that we celebrate the illustrious career of Garth Nolan within the River East Minor Hockey Association. After decades of dedicated service and unparalleled commitment, Garth has decided to retire from his role within our organization.

Garth's journey with REMHA has been nothing short of extraordinary. From his early days as Vice President of AA in '92 and '93 to his tenure as President from '98 to 2001, his leadership has been the cornerstone of our association's success.

His dedication and unwavering commitment have left an indelible mark on REMHA's legacy.
