He's an avid golfer and past Distinguished Governor of the Pacific Northwest District - Optimist International. At home, he's a dedicated Optimist, a charter member of the Mission, BC Optimist Club.Recently the community took notice and said thank you to Dick Brodie for his volunteer service as he was given the 2018 Lifetime Achievement Award by the District of Mission.
Among some of the highlights of his volunteer career are sports coaching for lacrosse, soccer, and badminton. He's organized charity golf tournaments for more than 18 years and of course, been an Optimist Club member for longer than that.
It's easy to see that Dick cares for others as he encourages them to be involved in their community. He says, "The best part about volunteering is the people that you meet. Go out, find something that you love doing, and then help as many people as possible."
We congratulate Dick Brodie on his recognition and send hearty compliments on his service to youth and community.
Thanks to Rose Brodie for sending the flyer to us to share.
