We have set a full SWANA DAY with sessions and our AGM for Monday, November 29.  We intend to live up to our mission as the leading organization in integrated waste resource management in BC and the Yukon.

To better serve our BC and Yukon members and provide better newsletter integration we are switching the website to a new hosting service and to a new platform. The site looks similar to how it did in the past, but its function will be much improved. We thank you for your patience during the transition - this has been going on in the background since June, but will be more visible when all the switches are actually live (mid-August).  If you have any questions or can't find what you're looking for, please contact Ralph Bischoff at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it and we will be sure to address them with our website consultant.   We'd particularly like to hear if you have any suggestions for features or content you would find particularly useful.

BIG changes on the www.swana.org Members Only section were previewed to the Chapter Officers on March 4, 2010.  Bob Wolfe and David Hernandez provided an excellent WebEx session that provides an EXCELLENT introduction to the new features and functionality.

On January 29, 2010 the Pacific Chapter Directors and Officers gathered in Delta, BC from around the province and set out a most important Visioning Project to see the chapter into this new decade.
