Retiring from the board is Darren Roberts who served the SCF for the past six years, including two years as president.
“On behalf of the Board of Directors and our community, the SCF would like to express immense gratitude to Darren for his dedication to the Foundation,” said Squamish Community Foundation Executive Director Karen Clarke.
