“Bill has been a passionate champion for the safety, inclusion, and well-being of residents in Area C for many years,” says RDEK Electoral Area C Director Rob Gay. “He spearheaded the effort to attract volunteer firefighters to the Moyie Volunteer Fire Department Society, offered training and support, advocated to expand their fleet, and has carried on as the lead in completing the enormous task of building a new firehall.”

In addition, Sanderman has been an active board member of the Moyie Shores Strata and has operated and managed the water system for many years. As president of the Moyie Community Association, he has shown great leadership by working to engage a broader community, gathering a new executive, and moving forward with community projects. “His foresight will benefit future generations in the organization as he has taken the time to gather all documentation and write a guidance manual for future executives of the association,” adds Gay.

The Volunteer of the Year celebration was held last night in conjunction with the Electoral Area C Town Hall Meeting in Cranbrook.
