ar excellence !

L’Association des francophones de Nanaimo and its Maple Sugar Festival
have been finalists in the Greater Nanaimo Chamber of Commerce
Sterling Community Awards nominations!

It is with great pleasure and
enormous pride that the
Francophone Association of
Nanaimo received a Sterling
Awards nomination for
‘Excellence in Business’, in the
Arts, Culture and
Entertainment category. Now
in its fifth year, the Sterling
Awards offer recognition to
various sectors of the greater
Nanaimo region for outstanding
achievements and continued
dedication to their community.

Other fine organisations also in
the running for the award were:
the Nanaimo Clippers, the
Harbour Front Library and
Spotlight Academy.

The Francophone Association
of Nanaimo receives the
nomination for its presentation
of the 4" Annual Maple Sugar
Festival, which was held at
both the downtown Harbour
Front Plaza and Beban Park
this past February.

The winners have since been
announced and the AFN would
like to congratulate the Sterling
Award recipient: The Nanaimo
Clippers. The AFN is still very
proud of its nomination and our
association’s representative
present at the event, was
equally honoured during the
evening, with another three
special mentions from other
nominees who emphasised

their support for the AFN and
the Maple Sugar Festival.
This type of public statement
once again, underlines the
AFN’s initiatives which are
being recognised and
appreciated throughout the
community.

Earlier this year, the Greater
Nanaimo Chamber of
Commerce also
commemorated the AFN’s
15" year membership and
dedication to its organisation
by remitting a certificate of
recognition to our President,
Mrs. Lise Quinn. Bravo to
everyone and many thanks to
our fine community for the
support!
