EVENTS 2010

Dear Colleague,

For over sixty years, the ORFA has been a leader in the recreation sector by providing specialized training and development opportunities for professionals who work in recreation facilities. Annually, over 2,000 individuals from around the province and beyond benefit from a variety of ORFA courses dealing with administration and management subjects, aquatic facility operations, buildings and grounds and refrigeration and ice. And, more recently, ORFA's select group of training courses has been in even greater demand given the increasing legal responsibilities of facility owners and operators to ensure them and their employees have the qualified competencies as defined by the Occupational Health and Safety Act.

The ORFA has collaborated with many skilled instructors and professional organizations in designing and delivering this year s selection of courses and events. In addition to the 55th Annual Professional Development Program, held at the University of Guelph, there is also an expanded list of regional training activities scheduled throughout the year designed to bring more training closer to your home and workplace!

I encourage you to review our event lisitngs and to register early to avoid disappointment. I am confident you will enjoy a first-class learning and networking experience.

Sincerely.


John Milton
Chief Administrative Officer
