Remaining on the board are Tim Giandomenico, Cookie Langenfeld, Gale-Paule Davison, Steve Reid, Jeff Johnson, Rob Sengotta, Kyle Dearing, Bill Laird, Dorothy Argent, Ron Langridge and David Barritt.

New to the board is Kathleen Hurtubise, who was acclaimed for a one-year term, and Jay Agassiz, who will serve for two years.

Representatives from the community will continue to be Carol McCreight from the Salmon Arm Chamber of Commerce and Debbie Cannon from the City of Salmon Arm.

Stepping down after many years on the board of the Salmon Arm Downtown Improvement Association – now Downtown Salmon Arm – are Michael Wagner and Rob Marshall.

Wagner has served for 16 years on the board, 13 of them as treasurer, while Marshall served for seven years, four of them as president.

Langridge presented both men with gifts on behalf of the board, acknowledging them “for their incredible work.”

He also showed a new plaque the association has created, which has Marshall and Wagner as the first two name plates to be engraved.
