CON 019 FE 2 R C E B N A C F E R FACING Futheture TOGETHER The relationship between our field and its impact on human and social development has never been higher. Facing the future will need us to find new partnerships, connections and alliances. ABC RECREATION FACILITIES ASSOCIATION OF BRITISH COLUMBIA Leaders of Recreation Facility Operations HARRISON HOT SPRINGS • MAY 13-16, 2019 2019 RFABC Conference Guest Speakers OUR KEYNOTE: Gayle Hallgren-Rezac & Judy Thomson Gayle Hallgren-Rezac and Judy Thomson are two of Canada's top networking experts. They are co-authors (with Darcy Rezac) of the best-selling book WORK THE POND! Use the Power of Positive Networking to Leap Forward in Work and Life (Penguin Prentice Hall) which has been called “the connector's handbook” by Town and Country magazine. Their trademarked philosophy of networking, Positive Networking®, has been named the “world's best definition”. For the past fifteen years, Gayle and Judy have been passionate champions of networking and have developed an expertise that they love sharing with others. For them, networking is a leadership skill, a team-building skill and a business development skill. It's what they call “networking done right™”. They have seen people become more confident, more successful, and more open to opportunities when they put into practice the skills they teach. This dynamic speaking duo's approach to networking is not just about confident connecting in all networking situations, it's about developing more collaborative relationships inside organizations and building stronger networks in work and life. Gayle and Judy have a special way of connecting with their audiences. Not only that, but they get their audiences connecting with one and other! https://www.nsb.com/speakers/judy-gayle AWARDS BANQUET ENTERTAINMENT: John Cullen John Cullen was raised in the suburbs of Toronto, and moved to the suburbs of Vancouver when he was 13. He finally moved to the big city in 2012, though that doesn't make him any less scared. He has been praised for being "immediately likable" on stage, a statement he fully endorses. John makes audiences feel at ease, and would insist that he is enjoying himself as much as the audience is. He has toured across Canada and they might've liked him in St. John's even more than in Vancouver, so that's something. John has been curling competitively since 1999, picking up the game in Ontario and then leaving for the British Columbia curling scene. He has been to BC Men's Provincials 5 times(winning bronze in 2012), won three World Curling Tour events, CON 019 FE and has been ranked as high as the top 25 of the World Curling Tour money list. 2 R C E B N A C F E Bringing his vast experiences in life as a curler, a teacher, and a friend to many to the R stage, John takes a charming and charismatic look at the world around him, and dares you not to fall in love with him. Okay, he just really hopes you love him. Because he loves you!
