Honorary Lifetime Membership

 

Lifetime membership is rarely granted, making it one of our club's highest honours. It recognizes an individual's long-standing dedication and service, and provides them with free membership for life.

As of September 2026, only three members have received this distinction:

Rosemarie Culver

Rosemarie has been a dedicated member of the club since 1980. Over the years, she has held numerous Executive positions, including serving as club president on three separate occasions. An active and passionate organizer, Rosemarie also arranged annual photography weekends for members, handling all the logistics herself. In recognition of her efforts to advance the club, she has earned multiple CAPA medallions, and in 2013, her outstanding contributions were honored with Honorary Lifetime Membership.

 

Linda Bristow, James Bristow

Since joining the club in 1980, Linda and James were active, dedicated members who generously shared their knowledge and mentored others. For many years, they jointly organized field trips across the province, including numerous excursions to Ontario's waterfalls. The exact number totals in the hundreds.  In recognition of their long-time service, loyalty, and commitment, they were first recognized through CAPA Pewter Awards and in 2018, both were honored with Honorary Lifetime Memberships.
