Vaughn Palmer hosted the event, with a lively discussion regarding the provincial government and what he foresees—or does not foresee—for the future.

The following Monday, REIBC held its 25th annual golf tournament and it was a huge success. Although the exact figure has not yet been determined, we know we will have a nice donation for our recipient Make-A-Wish Foundation of BC & Yukon to grant wishes to children.
