After leading with vision and a lot of hard work, Karen Puzara hands over the gavel to her husband Tony Puzara! Taking over the office of President just before the pandemic hit, Karen didn’t have the opportunity to chair in person meetings so it’s nice she had the fun of using the gavel at our meeting and election this evening. She seemed to really enjoy it! Thank you Karen for your leadership and dedication. We are so happy that you will still be on the board as Past President.

Congratulations to our member Janice Cuckovic who is pictured here receiving the Municipality of Lambton Shores 2022 Civic Award. She was nominated for her work by the Lambton Shores Phragmites Community Group directors. She handles a lot of the same responsibilities - website, social media, graphics, posters, committee work, event volunteer, etc. - with our club too! Well done Janice!  Congratulations to all of our winners and thanks again to all of our supporters! We'd like to send out special kudos to the very generous sponsors of our early bird prize packages.
