Programs & Events Committee Update

As Presented at the OGLCC's 2010 AGM

It has been a very busy year programming events for the OGLCC, but we’ve got a dedicated and thoughtful team who have conceived and executed an ambitious lineup of events.

We had a spirited kickoff to Pride 2009, as we partnered with Women for Recreation in Business and Pride Business Network to present a wonderful networking event at Palais Royale, a lovely lakeside venue in Toronto. Other great events included the Back to Business BBQ, held at Voglie in late August; a Tribute to Women in Business, hosted by TD Bank, with Colleen Johnson as the keynote speaker; the Holiday Food Drive Social, held at Zelda’s; as well as several other events that took place at community gathering places such as Peridot, Big Momma’s Boy, and Lola’s Commissary.  We even held a luncheon at the spectacular Toronto Board of Trade!

All of us on the Committee are excited to be working on several events that will take us through spring and summer, and beyond.  Based on feedback from the membership, we have decided to focus our Open Minds Open Doors series on networking, with our luncheon series dedicated to topics that will add great value for our members.

We would like to thank Dani Couture and Scott Warren from Associations First for their hard work and dedication; TD Bank Financial Group for their generous financial support, expertise, and true involvement; and those individuals who have contributed their valuable time helping plan these events.  Keep your eyes on oglcc.com for news on our exciting upcoming events.
