Provincial Aerie Hall of Fame

The British Columbia Provincial Aerie Hall of Fame was established in 2001 as a tribute to Brothers in our province, both past and present, who exemplify service and dedication to our Order. Inductees are announced in session at the Provincial Convention in June. Names of those who have passed on appear bolded in the list below. Aeries should submit their candidates’ names in time for the Spring Executive Session (the third weekend in March) then the Inductees can be announced, and their subsequent plaques presented, at the June Provincial Convention banquet.
