Douglas Luckett has volunteered on the North Bay executive for several years, and has helped lead the chapter as chair, vice-chair and past chair.

One of his greatest contributions has been his ability to drive participation in chapter events, including the Engineers Day Symposium, and Spring Fling Charity Event, Student’s Night, Bridge Building and scholarship events.

In partnership with the Ontario Association of Certified Engineering Technicians and Technologists, Douglas also transformed the North Bay Chapter’s long-time golf tournament into a more meaningful event. Initially the tournament was a networking event including golf, dinner and prizes. However, in cooperation with the local robotics team, Douglas altered the format to introduce student participation and additional corporate sponsorship. The event now raises $5,000 annually for the local robotics team—one of the world’s top ranked teams.
