A MESSAGE FROM YOUR EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR.
We held multiple events in February that fostered points of connection with many of our members. The Banff Mountain Film Festival, Coffee Connections, Open-house health benefits, and our current online cat-ski auction fundraiser. Our goal is to continue with the spirit of our 2023 theme, connection, by inviting you to join one of our upcoming events; AGM luncheon, Coffee Connections, Non-Profit roundtable, the launch of our updated Member to Member Benefit with Get In The Loop Revelstoke and much more.
This newsletter is designed to keep you updated on what we are doing within the 4-pillars in our strategic plan. You'll find important information within this incredibly resourceful email. I look forward to meeting each of you in the coming months.
