We share the awarding of this trophy with one of Canada's leading marine retailers The Store Mason's Chandlery. The hollow raindrop trophy was created by one of Canada’s leading glass blowers, Shirley Elford, in the bi-centennial year 2000. The idea for the hollow raindrop came from Bill Milne, who wanted generations from now, to compare how well we are progressing in protecting our environment. He felt "If the rain drops are clear" we are probably on the right track.
