“All of the directors, both the newly elected and the re-elected, share the passion and commitment required to support the DVA’s overall mission,” said Lara Konkin, executive director.
During the AGM, the DVA also presented the Spirit of Downtown Vernon Award to Vernon Teach and Learn for its continued commitment and dedication to the downtown core.
