In front of friends, family and a room full of distinguished guests, 23 exceptional civic leaders, including Halfmoon Bay’s Dana Brynelsen, were honoured on Tuesday, July 22, at Government House with the province’s highest form of recognition, the Order of British Columbia.
“The Order of British Columbia is the province’s most prestigious accolade,” said Lt.-Gov. Judith Guichon, Chancellor of the Order. “For 25 years, we have publicly recognized those who have dedicated themselves to bettering the lives of their fellow citizens. These recipients exemplify the positive difference one person can make in a community and are an inspiration to all British Columbians.”
