Performance Recognition Program

The Regional District of Nanaimo (RDN), through the Oceanside Services Committee, recognizes amateur competitors who achieve first place standing in a sport, artistic or cultural competition at a provincial, inter-provincial or national competition. In addition, the RDN recognizes amateur competitors who have been chosen by their organization to represent Canada at a recognized international competition. Nominees must be residents of the City of Parksville, Town of Qualicum Beach or Electoral Areas E, F, G, or H.

The next recognition ceremony will be held in the spring of 2027 and will recognize residents for their achievements in 2026.
