ORCA was pleased to host another successful Summer Conference with more than 250 delegates in attendance over the course of three days.
Held at Queen’s Landing in Niagara-on-the-Lake, for the first time, the conference was filled with numerous opportunities for networking and socialising. Keeping with tradition, there was a Dinner with a Board Member, Welcome reception and a golf tournament. In addition, this year, ORCA offered attendees the option to participate in a wine and shopping tour which was well received!
