Dear TIAC Members,

As the date approaches for TIAC’s 48th  annual convention, the organizing committee is excited and looking forward to welcoming everyone to our beautiful Okanagan Valley in the southern interior of British Columbia. The convention will be held September 18 to 21, 2010 in Kelowna, approximately 3.5 hours east of Vancouver.

We look forward to a fun-filled, informative annual get together with contractors, suppliers, and manufacturers from Canada and the United States. The valley boasts beautiful scenery, a year-round playground, and numerous award-winning wineries up and down the valley, as well as many challenging golf courses. We have numerous fun activities and business aspects to fill your days and nights, as well as a free evening and a great experience with dinner at one of the local wineries.

Golfers will enjoy the opportunity to golf at Gallagher’s Canyon Golf course, which is the location of this year's tournament. It is both a challenging and scenic course.
Conference registration is currently available or online as per directions at TIAC's website. Check the website for full program information and details about optional activity programming.
We look forward to seeing you in September in the sunny Okanagan for a great convention and party! Come early or stay later in our valley – you won’t be disappointed. It is truly God’s country.  

Yours truly,
Andre Pachon,
Convention Chairman
