A Great News Day for Lloydminster

I was privileged to attend Servus Credit Union Friday to bring greetings on behalf of the City for the launch the United Nations International Year of Co-operatives 2012. 
The Alberta launch was kicked off at 11:00 am and I joined employees from both Servus and Synergy CU's to celebrate and recognize the contributions the co-operative sector makes to social and economic development around the world.
The event ended with a simultaneous cake cutting happening across the province with the other 10 locations that joined in the live webcast.
We look forward to another successful year for Co-operatives in Alberta!

My next stop was Lakeland College for the press conference to announce that Lakeland was selected to host CCAA Women’s Volleyball Championship in March of 2013.

We are very fortunate to have dedicated staff, students and coaches at our College who are willing to take the lead in hosting events of this caliber. As we know, Lloydminster has been successful not only at a College level but at a City level as host to some great sporting events and we look forward to welcoming the teams to our city in 2013.

The only thing to remember ladies is don’t lose that last game.
