Hello everyone,
I would like to thank all of our attendees, guests, sponsors, staff and volunteers for helping to make AE 2008 such a success. We managed to raise over $3000 for the BC Children’s Hospital foundation! As well, despite the venue change and the rain on Sunday, we managed an increase in our attendee numbers. Over 4400 people came through our doors this weekend! Without you guys, we wouldn’t be able to hold this event. So again, on behalf of the AE 2008 executive committee, thank you.
I’d also like to announce that for next year, we will be holding the convention on June 12-14, 2009, at the Vancouver Convention & Exhibition Centre. See you all there!
Cathy Lee
AE 2008 Chairperson
