The 2010 award was given to Lorena Tillotson from Williams Lake.  She emailed her thanks.

" I am currently in third year at TRU and am hoping to go on to pursue a professional forester designation (RPF). All of my classes thus far have had been pretty heavy on the sustainability side of things and I certainly hope to incorporate this into any job that I get in the future. My goal is to implement management practices that find a balance between economic feasibility and ecological resilience. I think the forest sector is a great place to be because there is so much potential to do good things. I hope to be in a position one day to do these things!"
