hague.jpgAfter failing completely Retirement 101 in 2000, Ken is trying it again.

After leaving the CF in June 2000, he became involved with United Way of the Lower Mainland in August as a volunteer Loaned Rep for their fall campaign. That experience led to his being hired by United Way in April 2001 as a fundraiser. Two years later he became Director of the Workplace Campaign, and in 2004 he was appointed Vice President Resource Development. After 4 years leading the fundraising team at UWLM, he is retiring on June 27th, 2008. Ken and his wife Wendy have moved to Abbotsford, BC to their retirement home on, guess where, Golf Course Drive!! Yes, their house overlooks the 6th fairway of Ledgeview Golf Course. The next goal in his life – a one digit handicap!!
