A success by any definition, the grand opening of QEPCCC, which took place on March 26, 2012, saw 6,700 people come through the doors over the course of the day. Local residents enjoyed the many exhibitions, live performances and demonstrations as well as food, drink and official presentations. Congratulations to the Town of Oakville and many thanks to Lisa Giordano Hoehn our Membership Coordinator and Pamela Keywan,
Membership and Office Administrator, who helped make the day a
great success for our members.
