Canadian edition
The International Circle of Masters which is based in
NJ. USA holds various awards ceremonies throughout the
world. As travelling became quite difficult for
individuals from other Countries, the C.O.M. felt it
more beneficial for members in various Countries to hold
separate ceremonies.
For Canada this was held at the Personal Studio of Grandmaster Daniel Verkerke in Cambridge, Ontario Canada. NOTE: There is only one person to receive an honor award for each category. The C.O.M. registers each award for the year. We have provided a pictorial coverage below. |
