Membership Renewals
|
 |
There are still a number of members who have not renewed their membership for the coming year. Without the renewal you cannot obtain a listing in the 2009 Guild brochure, which, without a doubt, is an excellent and proven tool for promoting your business.
2009 Brochure Check your e-mails carefully in the next few days as information will be sent to you about next year's brochure. Sue Willis (A View to Remember B&B) is heading a committee to produce the brochure. That will free up some time for Ian MacPhee (Abbeymoore) to pursue other issues on behalf of the Guild.
See you in Prince George.
Graham Laxton (Greystone)

President's Greeting
Jack Reynolds Garden Ridge B&B, Westbank
I just wanted to recognize and extend thanks, on your behalf and that of the Board, to Rosel Vogt (Rosel's) and to Julie Griffiths (Arbor B&B) for their diligent work in putting together what will be a memorable couple of days in Prince George. There is still time to register and be part this experience. Contact Graham by e-mail or phone, 1-866-518-1000.
