2017 was a great and 2018 continues for the expansion of the Group Subgroup’s. New markets such as Quebec City QC, Kingston ON, Victoria BC, rejuvenate Southern Ontario and the possibility of Montreal south shore are being reviewed with local stewards that are interested in the creation of subgroups. Many thanks to stewards Angela Cowie, Emily Beckerman, Patrick Whalen, Jacques Laperriere, Tommy Georgas for their desire to create a new subgroup in their region. You have the AV Group’s commitment and support to move forward.
In 2017, new subgroups are now established in North Vancouver BC, St. John’s NFLD., Moncton and Fredericton NB, and our newly minted Toronto subgroup.
I want to thank all members of the committee as this planning and strategic goal was a team effort.
