Recognizing Outstanding Achievements: Greg Botting Broadway Walk of Stars The Broadway Walk of Stars recognizes individuals for their outstanding contributions to the growth and development of the Broadway area.  Initiated in 2004, the program is named after the late Greg Botting, one of the Broadway Business Improvement District's past Chairs and a successful and highly active Broadway merchant.  Categories for recognition include: builder, merchant, leader, supporter and artist. Please see the application form below for defining criteria in each category. Careful to select an icon that complements Broadway streetscape, these Stars will be recognized with a plaque which is placed on Broadway between May and August and unveiled at a ceremony organized by the Walk of Stars Committee. The exact location and date of the installation will be determined by the Committee in collaboration with the honouree or his/her nominator. All costs incurred in the manufacturing and installation of the star will be covered by the Walk of Stars Fund. Any reception, gala or event held in conjunction with the placement of the star, notwithstanding the brief ceremony at the site of the unveiling, will be organized and paid for by the nominee, nominator or friends and family. Should any party involved wish to contribute to the WOS Fund, a charitable tax receipt will be issued in the full amount. Donations will not influence the selection process; stars will be selected based wholly on the merit of the application. Nominations for the WOS will be accepted at the BBID office on an on-going basis throughout the year. Thank you to those who submitted nominations for the 2005 Star. The nominations for this year are now closed, however the BBID will accept submissions at any point prior to February 15, 2006 for consideration in the same year. The 2005 inductees, Garry and Janice Shoquist, have been in business on the Street for 33 years and were two of the drivers behind the creation of the Broadway BID and the plan to revitalize the area in the mid 1980's. Stop in at their shop, Northland Books at 630 10th Street East, and thank these two fabulous individuals who truly exemplify the spirit of Broadway.
