Near the end of November, WCHS sponsored another festive WinterFest at the Arbutus Club in Vancouver. As before, the evening provided a welcome opportunity to network with other homeopaths, students, and business professionals. We all enjoyed meeting new friends and connecting with "old" ones, as well as catching up with news about West Coast Homeopathic Society.
The evening ended with a spirited drawing for a large and varied selection of raffle prizes -- so many that most of us went home a winner!
A new feature this year were gift bags containing over $100 in gifts and coupons for our guests. We thank the following companies for their generous support by contributing to our mementos of a most enjoyable evening:
Boiron
Bowen College
Canadian Society of Homeopaths
Homeocan
Minimum Price Books
