34th Annual Provincial BCRPA Parks and Grounds
Spring Training Conference

A conference that gives parks and grounds professionals the opportunity to learn more about hot topics in the industry while networking with others in the sector.

The conference was divided into Horticulture Day (Tuesday, February 8, 2011) and Maintenance Day (Wednesday, February 9, 2011).
