With Whistler Blackcomb and the local mountains (Grouse, Cypress and Seymour) close by there are plenty of sports and recreation activities to engage in as well as the multitude of cultural and social events on offer within the Vancouver district and surrounds.

Conference Dinner Sponsored by Desire 2 Learn

The conference dinner will be held at the Vancouver Aquarium, a self-supporting, non-profit association dedicated to effecting the conservation of aquatic life through display and interpretation, education, research, and direct action.
The conference dinner is family friendly, light on presentations, and focused on good company, food, frivolity and humour. Enjoy the Desire 2 Learn dolphin show (weather dependent) and the many amazing sights. The venue is a short walk through Stanley Park from the Westin Bayshore.
