John Douglas served as the City of Port Alberni liaison on the Board of Directors for the community forest. John was an advocate for the community and always maintained close and compassionate contact with all members in our local society. His perspective and contribution will be missed on our board of directors.
We would like to thank Gary Swann for his years of voluntary service as a director on this Board. Gary was a strong voice for environmental sustainability while still providing an economic benefit to the Alberni Valley.
Ed Proteau will be sadly missed since his untimely passing. Ed was passionate about forestry and had a great understanding of forest management which was a great asset to this board.
