John Dunleavy is the recipient of the Club's Unsung Hero award and he will be honored at the District dinner November 8. John's dedication to the athletes of Winchester High School as manager of the school's Football, Hockey and Lacrosse teams won him this great honor. Many WHS students have been impacted by John's work and his always positive attitude. Many students have found inspiration in his legendary pep talks and unwavering support even during times of adversity.
