In recognition of Ankie Stroes’ many years of volunteering, the Maple Valley City Council recently presented her with the Golden Maple Leaf award and proclaimed the weekend of June 8-9, as Ankie Stroes Day. She also served as the Grand Marshall during the Maple Valley Days parade on Saturday, June 8. Ankie is a longtime broker with the John L. Scott Covington/Kent/Maple Valley office and devoted community member.
According to the city council proclamation, Ankie has demonstrated her commitment to Maple Valley in a variety of different ways – from starting Girl Scout troops to event and volunteer coordinator for Maple Valley Make a Difference Day, creating the Maple Valley chapter of Master Gardeners, and volunteering with the Tahoma School District.
Congratulations to Ankie and her exceptional practice of “Living Life as a Contribution®”!
