Charles Whisker Outstanding Volunteer Award 2023
The ACLC BC Branch Charles Whisker Outstanding Volunteer Award was created in memory of Major Charles Whisker, CD. Charles was an active participant in the volunteer community, being a member of the 257 Royal Canadian Legion, Lodge 110 of the Masons, the Canadian Frontiersmen, and the St. John Ambulance. Charles proudly served as the Commanding Officer of the 2422 RCACC and later as the Area Cadet Liaison Officer for Vancouver Island. Major Whisker was such an active participant in the volunteer community and this award is for the dedication of a volunteer he proudly stood for.
After carefully reviewing the numerous applications received, the ACLC BC Branch Honors and Award Committee is pleased to announce Ms. Caroline Hopper, chairperson of the 2893 RCACC is the recipient of the 2023 Major Charles Whisker Outstanding Volunteer Award. The ACLC Branch would like to congratulate Ms. Caroline Hopper for her dedication to the Army Cadet Program.
Ms. Hopper will also be the ACLC BC Branch’s nomination for the ACLC Outstanding Volunteer award, chosen later in the Spring.
The ACLC BC Branch would like to thank the many volunteers who were nominated for this award. Volunteers are truly the backbone of the ACLC BC Branch, and we are forever thankful for the time and dedication you all have given the Army Cadet Program in British Columbia.
