When any sports organization makes changes, everyone has questions and they are too numerous to list here.

One such change is with Karate Canada as they announce that Craig Vokey has been named as the new Sport Organizing Chair for Karate at the 2015 Pan Am Games.

He is a well respected member of the Canadian karate community, is the current Vice President of Karate Canada, and was Vice President of Karate Ontario from 2008 to 2013.

While on the Board of Karate Ontario, Mr. Vokey has headed the project to place Karate into the Ontario Summer Games, and has acted as OSG Convener in both 2010 and 2012.

Living in Sudbury for the last 20 years, Mr. Vokey has served in a number of volunteer capacities, including as President of Big Brothers of Sudbury and District.
