This November I will be attending the Wood WORKS! Awards Gala at the Toronto Congress Centre on Wednesday November 12th followed by the Wood Solutions Fair Thursday November 13th. This is our first year as a sponsor of the event and with the importance the Wood Industry plays in Green Building and LEED certification it makes sense for us to be there and meet the leaders of these companies and find out about there innovative products.
Sponsorship of events like this allow me to showcase our paper and ensure our coverage reaches new readers while at the same time ensuring we are covering a wide range of interesting topics. My goal is to be able to meet new people and lean about their business and see if there is a fit to eventually to work together through advertising or feature articles. Come check out our booth #401 at the Toronto Congress Centre and enter our draw to win a free feature article on your company.
Towards the end of the month I will be attending the Barrie Construction Association Annual General meeting which is also being held as part of their Christmas Dance at the Tangle Creek Golf and Country Club. I am always impressed when I visit Barrie based on the members and the energy of the association, there exists a true sense of community there. Barrie in 2009 is where I will continue to look to expand our news coverage and highlighting some of the great projects they have under construction.
Last up for me in November will be a few committee meetings with the Niagara Construction Association for Public Relations and Membership. I enjoy volunteering with the association on this level sharing ideas on how to make it stronger and getting to know other members. Some of the things we will be tackling are the Christmas Food Drive, Annual General Meeting for 2009 and the launch of the Awards program recognizing the contributions of it members. I am hoping to expand my involvement with all associations I work with currently and not only report the news from the associations but also be part of it.
