SREDA presents the annual Bruce Richet Award. This award celebrates and honours individuals for their outstanding contributions and commitment to regional economic development.
Award Background
In 1995, Bruce Richet was approached to represent the Saskatoon Region on the SREDA Board of Directors. From that time, Mr. Richet served on all internal committees, chaired the Regional Committee, and in 2013 became the Board Chairman. Mr. Richet provided leadership to the SREDA Regional Committee for over 20 years and took on the important role of getting member communities prepared for growth through regional planning. In recognition of such service, SREDA created “The Bruce Richet Award” for outstanding commitment to regional economic development. This award is presented annually in April.
