President’s Message,
Happy Holidays everyone!
Our annual Christmas gathering is upon us this week and we hope to see everyone out. Again, we will be collecting non-perishable items for the local food bank.
On behalf of the OIAA Niagara Chapter, we would like to wish everyone and their families a happy and very safe holiday season and a Happy New Year. With the various events and parties going on this time of year, we remind everyone not to drink and drive.
We look forward to the new year with our curling event and several meetings to wrap up the year.
Thanks to our executive team so far for their efforts in maintaining our chapter.
Jason Williams, CIP,
