AERS would like to congratulate Mr. Ian Stewart, Q.C., Chairman of the Board, on being presented a University of Victoria Legacy Award for his contributions as a Builder in the Sport category. Mr. Stewart has been with AERS for several years, but his charitable contributions to the Victoria and UVic communities run much deeper.

From the Legacy Awards “Celebrating Excellence” write-up:

Vikes Visionary

Through 12 years as a member and chair of the university’s board of governors, Ian Stewart helped to set the course for the Vikes recreation and athletics program, which is now regarded as one of the finest in the country. The Vikes’ commitment to excellence has produced 46 Canadian Interuniversity Sport championships. A talented football and rugby player in his own right, Ian’s efforts on behalf of students will have a lasting influence on campus life at the University of Victoria.

Congratulations again Ian, on behalf of everyone at AERS!
