It’s finally here, the last month of the year! ‘Tis the season of giving and sharing. Speaking of giving, I am looking forward to the “return on investments” for all my giving at this year’s weddings/bridal showers/baby showers of all my friends. It has been the year of giving and I can’t wait to receive…I mean, give some more. Yes, Gina (Virginia), there is a Santa Claus. To each and every one of you, I wish you the happiest of seasons. All the best to you and your family.

If you’ve enjoyed my article, I’m now accepting cash and/or gifts. I’m just kidding; I’m really not this greedy (usually…in public)…

GEDCO

GEDCO would like to thank all of those who visited their booth at the SEG, especially their users who took time out of their busy schedules to join in for a User Meeting and Happy Hour all in one (there was more than one person happy and people were happy for generally longer than an hour – GS). It was a very successful show, and GEDCO looks forward to working with their clients old and new throughout 2006. For information on GEDCO’s 2006 convention schedule or any other GEDCO news, check out the website at www.gedco.com.

CSEG

The 2nd Annual Volunteer Appreciation Evening was held October 13th at the Saltlik Steakhouse hosted by CSEG Member Services (François Aubin and Cherene Crawford). We had around 50 volunteers come out to enjoy some fantastic food and drinks. Thanks to everyone who did attend as we were up against the season opener of the Flames game. We look forward to another successful year with the help of all of our CSEG Volunteers. THANKS!
