We continue to share messages from our awesome Past Presidents with Caroline Aston 2014 - 2015. "One of the highlights of my time as President was the Board itself. I consider myself privileged to have their support. Throughout the year, they worked tirelessly as a team to manage their various responsibilities and tasks all focused toward achieving results to assist CanSPEP in moving forward. They were tremendous and I am truly grateful to all of them. So too, the Industr...y Partners and Suppliers that continued their unwavering support of the CanSPEP community including the annual conference and CanSPEP Day that to me are the highlight of every CanSPEP year. My time on the Board has provided me friendships for a life time." #canspep #cheersto25years #eventpreneurs

A look back at our Past Presidents' Terms in Office with Gale Gingrich. It was my pleasure to serve as president for the 2003/2004 term. My recollection of those days involves the development of great friendships (which exist to this day and will remain forever), forging relationships with planners and partners, lots of laughs, gallons of wine and excellent educational opportunities to hone my skills. #cheersto25years #canspep #eventpreneurs

When Joy created CanSPEP 25 years ago, she had a vision of bringing people together. A foundation was laid to provide a space to come together and learn, a space to find lasting friendships, a space to grow business and a space to support one another professionally and personally. The Partner Advisory Council (PAC) would like to toast CanSPEP on being together for 25 years and achieving their silver anniversary. Silver symbolizes brilliance, radiance and value a fitting d...escription of CanSPEP and its members. Brilliance synonyms are described as genius, skill, cleverness, talent and intensity. All qualities CanSPEP has in spades. Radiance synonyms are described as glow, sparkle, warmth, brightness and light. Isn’t this how we feel when we walk into a room at a CanSPEP event or conference? We can attest that this is how CanSPEP members have always made each one of us feel from the moment we walked into a room with them. And finally value. Value synonyms beyond the typical cost, price and amount are significance and importance. Significance and importance, CanSPEP is more than just another industry association, it’s a group that has had significant influences in our work and an importance in our lives. We can’t think of a better time to recognize the impact professionally and personally that CanSPEP has had. We raise our glasses and say cheers to our love for CanSPEP. Cheers and Love, Candace Schierling, Krista Cameron, Miranda Ji, Paul Bugge, Robert Thompson and Vicki Zeppa (2020-21 Partner Advisory Council) #eventpreneurs #cheersto25years #canspep

A look back at our Past Presidents' Terms in Office with Ellen Maracle-Benton Founding Member and Past President of CanSPEP. These two years were especially memorable. As President of this new Association, the highlight for me was leading us through a tremendous growth & recognition period.
