EC_Volunteer_08.JPGOttawa, Ontario-Equine Canada has named Corlin Bordeaux of Surry, BC, the 2007 Volunteer of the Year.

Bordeaux has been chosen for this award for his volunteer work in an area of Equine Canada that often goes unappreciated-governance. Bordeaux has analyzed issues and developed strategies and actions, and improved the way Equine Canada is structured and how it operates. He has been able to advise and counsel many groups and committees throughout the organization, including Equine Canada’s president, the board of directors, senior management and each of the four councils.

Never one to shy away from a challenge, Bordeaux has a spent significant amount of time consulting and learning from each provincial equestrian federation. Putting in often full-time hours, Bordeaux has written numerous reports to the Equine Canada board, has participated on Equine Canada’s Audit Committee, advises Equine Canada’s Executive Recruitment, Rendition and Review Committee and chairs the board’s 20-20 Task Force.
