A Neighbour You
Can Count On

Terry Zorgel has called Welland home his entire life. A devoted husband of 42 years and proud father of two daughters raised right here in Ward 4, he understands firsthand what it means to build a life in this community.

Terry lives in Ward 4 and has an appreciation of all the issues that affect its residents.

He's a graduate of McMaster University with a Bachelor of Science degree. A 8-time Ironman Triathlon Finisher, 10-time Boston Marathoner and 4-time consecutive winner of the Welland Sports Masters Sportsperson of the Year award, Terry brings the same drive and discipline to representing Ward 4.

He worked 41 years, mostly in Ward 4, through a number of management positions, most recently being Operations Manager for an Automotive Supplier.

Terry will bring change, fresh ideas and a teamwork attitude to drive Welland and Ward 4 forward.

He's running not because he has all the answers but because he's willing to ask the right questions and follow through.
