Susan Scott

The Broncos were in need of a treasurer, one who knows what to do to keep the books in line! I knew I had to get involved once Michelle (my niece) was chatting about it with me. As you can see I am still doing books for clients and more than happy to help where ever I can. I am a retired instructor from TRU with 30 years of teaching bookkeeping and accounting skills.

I have been married and raising our family in Kamloops since 1982. We have one son, Alex that works on our farm with us and we are proud grandparents to two young boys.

Angela actually hails from South Delta! A long time fan of the Broncos due to family connections, she decided that the Broncos organization could use some of her time (especially since her son has moved to Kamloops to join the team!)

The Broncos is a great organization that does a fantastic job with the young men, and the community spirit is something that is important to keep growing.

Chris Devuyst

Director

The Kamloops Broncos reached out to me to ask if I would like to be part of the Board, and help try to make a difference for future young athletes to grow in a community and family of football. I joined the Broncos because I have a passion in my heart for the game and I love ways I can be involved in the community and contribute to making change.
