Each year the Yorkton Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors select one of their circle to receive Director of the Year honours.
The award was initiated in 1997 in honour of long-time director Ruth Shaw, and goes to a director showing dedication, enthusiasm and a positive attitude.
The recipient for 2020 was Marty Sveinbjornson, who now sits as president for 2021. He received the award Thursday at the Chamber’s annual general meeting.
