The Gold Award Celebration Banquet is a special time for us to come together. We get caught up with old friends and make new ones. We also celebrate the recipient of the annual Gold Award honouring a person who has made a significant contribution to Welsh life in Ontario, and has been presented since 2011.
We are thrilled to announce Gwen Davies Dodson as the 2025 Gold Award Recipient. She will be presented the award at the Banquet on Saturday, April 26, 2025 beginning at 5:00 p.m.
