Things got colourful and tropical at the Penticton Trade and Convention Centre from June 1-5, 2015 as the Educational Facility Managers Association (EFMA) of British Columbia held its annual conference and trade show. The event, titled “The Beat Goes On – Reassigning Stress”, featured professional development sessions, zone meetings, the EFMA AGM, a trade show, and more. The keynote speaker was Drum Café,

which provided interactive drumming and team-building activities to attendees. Drumming wasn’t the only interactive opportunity for those who attended the conference. The trade show, which was held on June 3 and 4, was a great opportunity for members and delegates to visit vendors, many of which supply their products to B.C. schools.
