1 2017 BOATING BC CONFERENCE SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

2 IT S THE INDUSTRY EVENT OF THE YEAR. Once a year the recreational boating industry in British Columbia steps away from their busy lives to attend the Boating BC Conference. It s an inspiring two days where people come to learn, connect, and share ideas. The 2017 conference will be held on Tuesday, November 21st and Wednesday, November 22nd at the Pacific Gateway Hotel in Richmond, BC. This year we ll celebrate 60 Years of Boating in BC as we look back at how the industry has evolved, to present day issues and trends that will guide us into the future. Tangible takeaways will inform and help grow recreational marine businesses in all sectors across our province. It is the premier event for networking with current and new colleagues, and consistently creates an environment rich in camaraderie through shared workshop activities, receptions, and great entertainment. Our delegates tell us this is an exceptional experience so it s no surprise that each November, our industry feels just a little bit stronger and more united than the year before.
