On behalf of the Board of Directors and association management, I would like to thank each of you for attending and supporting the 52nd Annual WCTA Conference and Tradeshow in Victoria. Considering the timing and the choice of conferences to attend in the short period between February and March, we were very pleased with the attendance and the quality of the show. Thank you all!!
