Message from the WCTA Board
It’s been an unusual year for the WCTA Board with Cam Watt’s departure from the industry. Gary Bartley, from UBC Athletics, moved into the Presidency role ahead of schedule leaving the VP position empty but fortunately, Stu Carmichael from the City of Courtenay, stepped up and has filled that role.
