Previous Events Wrap-Up














     As you can see, despite a lack of updates (been terribly busy, sorry!) the BCYL has been very active over the last little while!

     Starting from the top down, last Saturday (December 15) we had our 2007 Christmas Party which had over 100 attendees (including Attourney General Wally Oppal and MLA Mary Polak). On December 1st the UVic BCYL held a social with Minister of Advanced Education Murray Coell and the SFU BCYL held a dinner social despite what was practically a snowstorm.

     On November 25th members of the BCYL joined Vancouver-Burrard MLA Lorne Mayencourt in the annual Santa Claus Parade (we also have a video you can watch here) and the day before (November 24th), the UBC BCYL held a social with him at Score in Vancouver. On November 21st BCYL members attended a BC Liberals Fundraiser with Health Minister George Abbot.

     November 17th was incredibly busy - we had a social with MLA Harry Bloy at The Old Spaghetti Factory and beforehand held our first ever Imagine 2020 Forum at the Accent Inn in Burnaby and had over 30 participants - and even before that the BCYL Executive held a meeting. On November 16th we had an event with Minister Rick Thorpe at UBC Okanagan; on November 13th BCYL members attended a South Island Breakfast with Minister Ida Chong and finally, on November 7th, BCYL members took to the bleachers to watch David Beckham and the LA Galaxy take on the Vancouver Whitecaps.

     We have no upcoming events scheduled for the rest of the month, so have a happy holiday and happy New Year! Get off to a great start by e-mailing info@bcyl.ca to find out how you can get involved in the New Year!
