Linda Hoy honoured

One would be hard pressed to find a local group or organization that was not represented in some capacity on Friday afternoon at the Bulwer Community Centre as Linda Hoy was presented with the Governor General’s Sovereign’s Medal for Volunteers. A testament to Hoy’s community engagement, the hall was brimming with people from across the townships who came to show appreciation for a consummate volunteer. Nominated for the award by her local Women’s Institute branch, which is presided over by her mother Marion Annesley, Hoy was celebrated for decades of dedicated service to local Women’s Institutes at the provincial and national level, her church, the Eaton Corner Museum, and the Eastern Townships Learning Centre among many other groups and institutions.
