A volunteer who has served many roles with many organizations has been named JCI Vernon’s Good Citizen of the Year for 2020.
As is the tradition, Joan Albert was presented with the award by surprise while she was outside at Polson Park today (Mar. 13). She was congratulated by masked members of JCI Vernon, as well as masked friends and family.
Ms. Albert was presented with a bouquet donated by Harrison Flowers, the Good Citizen of the Year Trophy, as well as a $500 donation to a charity of her choice on behalf of Kidston and Company Lawyers.
The Good Citizen of the Year Award has been handed out in Vernon for over 50 years, dating back to the 1940’s. It recognizes a specific individual and their contributions, while also highlighting the value of the contributions to the community.
