Windsor Chapter presents Awards of Distinction
The Windsor Chapter honoured a number of its professional members for their outstanding work with its annual Awards of Distinction.
The presentation ceremony took place on Oct. 25 at Bellaire Landscape in Maidstone. Approximately 60 people, including students and employees, attended the awards ceremony and dinner.
Organizers say this year, both the number of entries and the quality were improved over previous years. The Chapter was joined by LO executive director Tony DiGiovanni. He noted, “The Chapter is doing an amazing job and the awards meeting was excellent.” The winning entries follow.
A special thank you went to the following sponsors: Mark and Sue Williams of Williams Nursery, who were the awards sponsor; Brian Lansue of Vehicle Venture, who sponsored the meal; Mike, Olivia and Bob Bellaire and Chris Power of Bellaire Landscape, who hosted the event; Jay Terryberry, Sandy MacDonald and John Lein, who performed the judging duties; Windsor Chapter president Nino Papa, who was the master of ceremonies; St. Clair College horticulture students and all those who submitted entries.
Nino Papa said, “We encourage every member to get involved in some way and to continue to propel our industry to new levels of professionalism. It benefits us all!”
