During the event, we celebrated our remarkable achievements from the past year and discussed our exciting path ahead, guided by our inspiring theme, "Growing Together for the Future."
Our keynote speaker, Chris Cull captivated the audience with his extraordinary story. As a two-time cross-Canada cyclist, filmmaker, motivational speaker, and a recovering opioid user, he shared his personal journey and how he has transformed into a remarkable community leader. It was truly inspiring.
We were honored to have our esteemed board members, including Darlene Forbes our Board President, and Nathan Gardner our Executive Director, share their insights and perspectives from the 2022 year.
