AGM a Success!

Our Annual General Meeting was held this past Tuesday. As with AGMs, you never know who might show up, so we were overwhelmed by the people who came out to share a lovely dinner, followed by an evening of student & staff stories. Special guest, author Andrew Binks, finished off the evening with much laughter, as he read from his recent novel, The Summer Between.

Thanks to everyone who came: students (some of whom shared their stories), Board members, community partners, and friends.

Special thanks to County Councillors Monica Alyea, Sandy Latchford, Bev Campbell, and John Thompson. We appreciate your interest and your support.
