  • Red Nominee Bios
    RED RED Nominees Red - Life (Lifetime Achievement) This award recognizes an outstanding individual whose work has enriched Vancouver’s LGBTQ community. Individuals must have dedicated at least 10 years of volunteer service to one or more organizations that promotes one or more of the Vancouver Pride Society’s core values. Shawn Ewing I was born in Calgary, Alberta and moved to Vancouver when I was 8. Spent my school years in North Vancouver and graduated from Carson Graham. Since that time, I have lived in various areas of the Lower Mainland as well as a year in Toronto and three years in Calgary. My first involvement with the Vancouver Pride Society (VPS) was in 2001, when I volunteered to be security at the festival site. I saw, first hand, the great need for people to step up and help. That same year I was appointed a Director on the VPS board and also assumed the Parade Director role. At the following Annual General Meeting (AGM), all but two Directors resigned. Randy Atkinson and I remained. After pleading with the few members present at the AGM to join the Board, we were able to continue with the five people that volunteered. The new Treasurer reviewed the finances and discovered the organization was in debt in excess of $100,000. By the time we presented this to the VPS board, we had grown in numbers and had 10 members. Two choices were presented for the VPS board to consider. One, we could just step away. Two, we could dig in and find a way to make it work.
