The Union Steamship Company (USSC), Bowen Dog Ranch and Michelle Nelson were all nominated for Excellence Awards through the West Vancouver Chamber of Commerce. Oydis Nickle accepted the award for Best Medium Sized Business on behalf of the USSC and Doc Morgan’s.

“I do appreciate the official recognition,” says Nickle. “But really it is Rondy who should be getting this for all the work he’s done over the years.”

Former Economic Development Committee Chair Gordon Ganong was one of the judges in this year’s round of Excellence Awards, and says the process is extremely objective.

“But with The Pub winning last year, and Doc’s winning this year, I think we can say that Bowen is becoming the pub capital of the Coast.”
