His membership lasted a span of 46 years until his death in July of 2002. In addition to being the Director of Parks for the City of Toronto until his retirement in 1982, Jack held many prominent positions with ISA. In 1961 he was elected President of the then Board of Governors for the Canadian Chapter. In 1970 he was elected President of the International Shade Tree Conference after holding positions as President Elect, Vice President and Chair of several steering committees. In 1982 Jack became the first Executive Director of the Canadian Chapter of ISA, a position he held until 1994.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over the course of\u00a0all these voluntary commitments, Jack was recognized with many distinguished awards including ISA\u2019s Maple Leaf Award honouring an individual who has provided exceptional energy, leadership and commitment to promoting and improving arboriculture and urban forestry for more than 10 years;\u00a0the Special Achievement Award, recognizing someone who has provided valuable and ongoing service to the Chapter; ISA\u2019s Honourary Life Member Award; and the Award of Merit, ISA\u2019s highest level of distinction.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Harold Van Dyke <\/summary>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-thumbnail is-resized is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" fetchpriority=\"low\" src=\"https:\/\/canadiantreefund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/vandyke-150x150.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-51951\" style=\"width:322px;height:auto\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image: Logo of Harold VanDyke Tree Care<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>History of the Harold VanDyke Bursary<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Harold was the owner of Van Dyke Tree &amp; Landscape Ltd. and a long-standing ISA\/ISAO member. He was President in 1969 and received the Supporting Membership Award in 1995. Harold was very active in commercial arborist matters throughout the province. He passed away suddenly in 1997. His son Larry carries on the business today. Among other passions, Harold loved to help young people, especially arboriculture students. Besides vocally pushing for more and better courses, he quietly helped students in need financially. Although never on the board of the Canadian TREE Fund (then called the ISA Canadian Research Trust), the Ontario Commercial Arborists\u2019 Association (OCAA) donated money in his name and asked that a special bursary be established through CTF.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Randy Lidkea<\/summary>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>History of the Randy Lidkea Scholarship<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Canadian TREE Fund honoured and acknowledged Randy Lidkea by establishing an award in his name in 2007 to recognize his long term devotion to the industry. He has made remarkable accomplishments, as a person, a mentor and a committed advocate of the arboriculture profession as well as the ISA organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Randy had a successful career with the Ontario Ministry of Transportation; was Executive Director of the Ontario Chapter for seven years and the chapter\u2019s ISA representative; Secretary-Treasurer for the Canadian TREE Fund from 1996 to 2005;\u00a0and in 2007, was one of five ISA vice presidents. He has\u00a0always been\u00a0devoted to his family and volunteer activities. Randy would generally be described as generous, honest, devoted, dependable and never too busy to provide help or assistance to someone in need.Randy has been a role model and inspiration to many and is truly deserving of this distinction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Randy graduated from the<a href=\"http:\/\/www.niagaraparks.com\/school-of-horticulture\/index.html\">\u00a0Niagara Parks School of Horticulture<\/a>\u00a0in 1967, so it is most fitting that his college of choice for this award be his alma mater. The award is presented to a third year student who achieves the highest cumulative marks in the following courses that align with the principles of arboriculture: soil science, tree identification and practical tree maintenance. Randy, or his designate, presents this scholarship at the graduation ceremonies in March of each year.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<details class=\"wp-block-details is-layout-flow wp-block-details-is-layout-flow\"><summary>Hope Eaton<\/summary>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This Award is in memory of Hope Eaton.<br>\u00a0<br>She came from rural Nova Scotia to Ontario in 1959. Hope Eaton dedicated her life to her family and her community. She led with an open heart, learning, and listening to what people were experiencing in their lives, so that she could better understand not just the circumstances but the why. Why were they in the position of hardship? She saw the marginalized people and gave them opportunity to thrive. Her care for her community was unwavering. Hope truly understood that building community is about learning to understand one another and that\u2019s what protects lives.<br>\u00a0<br>Hope Eaton was Nick&#8217;s grandmother; she\u00a0encouraged him to follow his passion and always follow through (Nick Ramirez, owner-operator of Eaton Tree Solutions Inc.).<br>The Hope Eaton Award was established to further support promising new arborists and solidify the growth and development of the next generation of professional arborists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"456\" height=\"80\" fetchpriority=\"low\" src=\"https:\/\/canadiantreefund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Eaton-Tree-Solutions.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-53587\" srcset=\"https:\/\/canadiantreefund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Eaton-Tree-Solutions.jpg 456w, https:\/\/canadiantreefund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Eaton-Tree-Solutions-300x53.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/canadiantreefund.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Eaton-Tree-Solutions-18x3.jpeg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 456px) 100vw, 456px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/details>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apply for a grant or bursary from The Canadian Tree Fund and learn about some of the projects we have funded in the past. <\/p>","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"give_campaign_id":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-51843","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"campaignId":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadiantreefund.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51843","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadiantreefund.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadiantreefund.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadiantreefund.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadiantreefund.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51843"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/canadiantreefund.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51843\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":53589,"href":"https:\/\/canadiantreefund.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/51843\/revisions\/53589"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadiantreefund.org\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51843"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
