Their new awards and those they recognized consisted of:

  • Jack Allston Memorial Award to John Gushue;
  • Honourary Planning Membership Award to Shannie Duff;
  • Community Builder Award to the East Coast Trail Association; and

On Wednesday, NLAPP held it’s inaugural award program by awarding the Honorary Planning Membership Award to Shannie Duff, former mayor of the City of St. John’s and long-time supporter of urban planning; the NLAPP Community Builder Award to the East Coast Trail Association, a not-for-profit group that works to sustain 300 km of trails around the Avalon; and the Jack Allston Memorial Award to John Gushue, a digital producer with CBC News.

NLAPP also arranged for a tree to be planted to honour Arvo McMillan, an avid outdoorsman and planner in several provinces across Canada for many years, who passed away earlier this year.
