Congratulations Val! On February 28th, Valerie Stobbe officially retired after more than 23 years with Landscape Alberta. Valerie (Val) was a valuable staff person for the association for many years, and an incredible co-worker and friend to those she worked with. She will indeed be missed in immeasurable ways, but we are very happy for her. It won’t be same at the Green Industry Show without her beaming smile and her basket of chocolate for ‘her exhibitors’. Some of her duties will be shifted to others, most notably Lisa Brick taking on the tradeshow component of the position. A new staff member will join the team soon but will never replace Val in our hearts.
