"When I look back ... the chamber has made huge strides on municipal, provincial and federal levels," said Dianne Hawkins, the chamber's executive director, who recently finished her last term on the BC Chamber board. "As a whole, the organization has really raised its profile. We’ve had many strong community members as leaders."

Comox Valley president Jeff Lucas says the nomination comes from a variety of initiatives the chamber put in place during the past year.

Lucas admits the award is a big honour for the chamber.

"It was chosen by our peers and they’ve said, ‘Comox Valley, you’ve done a lot of fabulous stuff.’"
