Cultus Lake Park’s Chief Administrative Officer, Joe Lamb and Manager of Corporate Services / Corporate Officer, Rachel Litchfield were recognized for their participation in the Cultus Lake Water Safety Working Group on March 13th at the RCMP 13th Annual Upper Fraser Valley Regional Detachment Officer in Charge “Recognizing Excellence” Awards Ceremony. This event celebrates RCMP officers, employees, and private citizens who provided excellent service and showcase a commitment to public safety for communities within the Upper Fraser Valley.
The working group was formed in 2020, following an incident on Cultus Lake involving a ski boat and an Indigenous canoe. The Upper Fraser Valley Regional District RCMP’s Urban Indigenous Liaison collaborated with Indigenous leadership representatives, individuals from the canoe community and Cultus Lake Park Board and staff to implement plans to improve water safety on Cultus Lake from 2020 through to 2023.
On behalf of the Cultus Lake Park Board and staff, congratulations to Joe and Rachel for this prestigious award in recognition of your commitment and dedication to improved water safety for our community and Cultus Lake users!
