On December 31st, Brian Pfeifle will be officially retired from his role as Cortes Island’s Waste Management Manager. Pfeifle has been a resident of Cortes for 30 years and held the position of Manager for the past nine years.
He reminisced about the many changes the centre has seen during his time: “Dova Wilshire took over and that's where all the major changes started happening with recycling and how it's managed.”
After working with Dova for 3 years, Brian took over as manager. Pfeifle’s affinity for art permeated his time at the Waste Management Centre, curating an art gallery on the inside walls of the centre’s main building.
Aaron McCulloch-Gary, whom has been working at the Waste Management Centre for almost 4 years, will be stepping up as the new manager on January 1st, 2023.
