ANNOUNCEMENTS

F2F Goes Digital:

Faster, Easier, Better!

In early June, we launched the first-ever digital edition of the Facility 2 Facility News Magazine, and we couldn't be more excited!


F2F is your go-to guide, filled with valuable tips and resources for recreation operators throughout B.C.



Why go digital?


  • Shareable & Accessible: Members, partners, advertisers, and others can share it on social media or via email, spreading the word even further.
  • Explore More with a Click: Looking for more information? Just click the active links to quickly access extra tools and resources.


  • Hot Off the Digital Press: No more waiting for the mail. A digital magazine is available the moment it's published, so you can read it right away.


  • Flexible Options: We're saving trees by not mass printing, but if you still prefer a printed copy, you can easily print it directly from the link.


In this issue, we're celebrating the 2024 RFABC Award Winners. Check out who's been honoured, and join us in applauding their hard work.

Hosting a course is easier than you might think. All you need is:


  • A room large enough to accommodate 15-20 students
  • A projector or SMART TV
  • A whiteboard or flipchart with markers
  • Ability to set up the classroom before the course begins
  • Coffee, water, and/or snacks are encouraged, but optional


To show our gratitude for your support, we offer one free registration for someone from your facility! If you’re interested in hosting, please reach out to us, and we’ll work with you to make it happen.
