BC Alpine GOLDIE AWARDS
On Saturday, September 30, 2017, in conjunction with its Annual General Meeting and Member Summit, BC Alpine recognized some of the amazing individuals

A huge thank you goes to the staff at Kelowna's Bohemian Cafe for hosting us once again – the food was out of this world and everyone had a great time.
Please join us in congratulating the following athletes, coaches, volunteers, officials and ski resorts!
