Outstanding Volunteers Recognized May 12, 2015 The Regional District of East Kootenay has formally recognized its 2015 Electoral Area F and G Volunteers of the Year. Electoral Area F Director Wendy Booth says Area F Volunteers of the Year Terry and Shirley White have touched many lives with their kindness. "The Whites are active in their community through the Lions Club and both have dedicated many hours to the Columbia Valley Arts Council. Beyond that, they also give personally – whether it’s helping a family in distress, finding information for someone or just making them feel cared about through their giving ways. Their impact on this community was clearly demonstrated by the wonderful turnout at the Resort last night as we presented them with a gift of our appreciation."
