Each year, the District selects new recipients for the award based on their impact on the community from nominations put forward by residents.
Among this year’s recipients is Douglas Graham, who has spent over a decade ensuring Kitimat youth can participate in minor level hockey.
Event organizer Shaun Oviatt joins him in honour of his work with numerous events, such as the Kitimat Rail Jam, Mud Games, snow mazes, and more.
And former Councillor Rob Goffinet is being honoured for over four decades of advocacy and volunteering work in the community.
District officials hand the awards out each year as part of their Canada Day celebrations.
