SPOA B.C. PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE Bruce MacLean

Ahhh, spring … and with spring comes that final push to the end of another school year. Projects and strategies are all in place awaiting funding announcements that will determine the course of action for the upcoming year.

It’s been a busy year for the SPOA Executive, which has continued working on initiatives to strengthen the association. The 2011 conference is fast approaching and the conference committee (aided by members at large) have put together a terrific program with a focus on “Healthy Teams”. Pro-D sessions start the week and provide a strong lead into the conference. There is a wide range of sessions and roundtable offerings, including a Ministry roundtable that will give us the opportunity to share ideas and strengthen our relationship with the Capital Management Division. The AGM will have reports and updates on the association business undertaken over the past year – Certification Program, Standards and Practices, Constitution, Climate Action, and the presentation of our Strategic Plan, which has been a major undertaking of the past few Executives.

My year as SPOA president has passed quickly, but it has given me the opportunity to be involved with projects and meet people that has made the year most rewarding and memorable. We have a tremendous resource available to us – our members – knowledgeable, professional and always willing to help. I would like to encourage you all to become involved and engaged in the business of the association. There are many avenues available for you to do this, from zone meetings to committee work, right through to putting your name forward as a director.

In closing, I hope you all have a great year and remember – the 2011 SPOA B.C. Conference runs May 31st to June 3rd in Penticton – I’ll see you there!

Sincerely,

Bruce MacLean
