Bio: Brenda has been involved in sport in the Yukon for over 20 years serving on a number of sport boards including Athletics Yukon, Canada Senior Games Association, and the Yukon Pickleball Association, where she has been instrumental in growing the sport in communities across the Yukon, and through the “Pickleball Fundamentals” program with the Canada Games Centre.

Brenda’s enthusiasm for sport is infectious and inspirational, and her impact on our community can be measured in many ways: in building senior participation in sport, in promoting healthy active living, and in leading sport organizations and initiatives with compassion, vision, and fairness.

Brenda exemplifies what the Administrator of the Year award stands for, and it is my pleasure to present her with this award.
