The Arbutus Club in Vancouver was the location of the WCHS's 2007 annual
conference and AGM. This is becoming a favourite location for the
Society's activities, being easily accessible, with pleasant surroundings
and great food. It's a perfect venue for talking homeopathy!
This year's conference was held on Saturday, April 28 followed late in the
afternoon by the WCHS Annual General Meeting. Featured speakers were
Jo Twiss (standing in for scheduled speaker, Judi Adema who was absent due
to a family emergency) who introduced professional standards with the Canadian Society of Homeopaths,
and Karen Allen, who reviewed case analysis techniques.
Highlighting the morning session was the presentation of a One Year
Subscription for the Homeopathic
Symposium Online Interactive Video Cases to Judy Chorney.
This award came from the World Homeopathic Awareness Organization in
recognition of the CSH promotion of HAW 2006, which Judy organized and
made possible.
The day closed
with the drawing of over 2 dozen prizes that included homeopathic
software, remedy kits, literature, gift certificates, and much more.
We thank all the donors (listed below) for supporting our Society with
their generous gifts.
The Annual General Meeting included the election of officers, aka the
Board of Directors. Each year all Board members are elected for one-year terms. This year, nominations included three directors
from the previous Board and four new members. The newly-elected
Board of Directors is comprised of: Leah Bratt, Elena Cecchetto,
Carol Emerson, Laura Gebherdt, Shauna Kovach, Anndee Raney, and Jo Twiss.
On the following day, in the same location, WCHS sponsored its first-ever
post-conference seminar with Karen Allen speaking on Individualizing the Case: Case Analysis to
Improve Your Practice and Prepare for CHC Certification.
This was well received and there were many requests to invite Karen back
by popular demand!
All in all, another successful event sponsored by West Coast Homeopathic
Society. And it should come as no surprise that our next annual
conference is scheduled at the same location, also on the last Saturday of
April. Mark your calendars for Saturday, April 26, 2008.
