Tourism Victoria’s annual general meeting on April 22 will honour two people who have made significant contributions to Greater Victoria’s tourism economy.
Svein Haugen, Director of Properties and Land Management with the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure, is the recipient of the 33th annual Miracle Award. The Miracle Award recognizes an outstanding individual or group that has shown leadership in the development of the tourism industry in Greater Victoria.
Al Clark, the founder and organizer of Northwest Deuce Days, is the recipient of the 2016 Life Member Award. The Life Member Award recognizes an individual’s exceptional contributions to Tourism Victoria, the tourism industry and the Greater Victoria community.
