Hey everyone!!

My name is Derek Howes and I was voted in as your new VP of Athletics. I am very much excited for the upcoming year. A lot of great things to come!

I am a hometown boy, born and raised in London, Ontario. I went to Clarke Road Secondary School right here in the East. I’m the big 2-0, and have been going to Fanshawe College for 3 years now. I’m a veteran! I play for the Fanshawe Falcons Men’s Volleyball team for 3 years now and have been working in the department ever since I started. I graduated from the Recreation and Leisure program and came back for a second round for Police Foundations. Both are great programs. I’ve met a lot of great people here at Fanshawe and am looking forward to serving you as a student.

One of my goals is to improve Campus Recreation and also to improve the numbers at the Varsity home games located in J Gym. There are some very exciting events on campus so come on out and have a time! Support your falcons! Try-outs start in September for the 11 teams Fanshawe takes on.

Come on in and visit me come September or at the Athletics Department in J1034. I’m very excited to meet you!

Get Active at Fanshawe College!
