The Prince Albert & District Chamber of Commerce is proud to recognize Ron Lypchuk as the 2025 Legacy Award recipient, honouring more than four decades of business leadership, entrepreneurship, and dedicated service to the Prince Albert community.

Ron began his professional career in 1978 after earning his real estate license and starting in Saskatoon. Two years later, he made the move to Prince Albert—a decision that would shape both his career and his lasting impact on the community. Over the next 40 years, Ron built a respected real estate career, known for his professionalism, integrity, and commitment to his clients.

Entrepreneurship has always been central to Ron’s story. After moving to Prince Albert, he operated the Pulp Mill cafeteria for 10 years and later built and ran Taco Time on 2nd Avenue for a decade, successfully balancing both the food service and real estate industries.

Real estate eventually became a family legacy. In 2007, Ron’s daughter Brianne joined the business, followed by his son Michael in 2009. Together, the Lypchuk family established a trusted presence in the region’s real estate community. Ron retired in June 2020 after an impressive 42-year career.

Beyond business, Ron has always believed in giving back. He and his family have long supported the Children’s Hospital Foundation, the Children’s Miracle Network, and the local food bank. He has also served on the local sports council and has been a dedicated supporter of Prince Albert sports, proudly holding Prince Albert Raiders season tickets for more than 30 years.

A devoted member of the Ukrainian Greek Orthodox Church, Ron volunteers his time and talents and has been recognized by the Bishop for his longstanding service.

Through his business leadership, community involvement, and dedication to family, Ron Lypchuk has left a lasting legacy in Prince Albert—one built on hard work, generosity, and community spirit.
