"Helped me get to where I am today"

I can honestly say being a member of the Edmonton OTS has helped me get to where I am today. Years ago, I believed in networking as much as I could and this worked out well for me. I started up (my business) and one of the reasons was because of a couple close friends that I met (here). They encouraged me to go out on my own. Like anything you do or any group you join, you get out of it what you put into it!
- A proud member -
"I enjoy networking"

I enjoy networking and taking part in the fun events. It’s a great way to network beyond my normal social events. At one time, it was to improve my employability and ability to integrate.
- A proud member -
"Full access to the park whenever you want"

I find the value of being a member is being invited and involved to every event we have and full access to the park whenever you want, as long as no bookings are down there. Also being a member gets you access to different companies that might present great business opportunities with your own company.
- A proud member -
"I enjoy all hosted events"

I am a member because I enjoy all hosted events, and enjoy seeing friends I may not see in my typical day to day.
- A proud member -
"Great job in introducing new events"

I believe you guys continue to do a great job in introducing new events or reorganizing and changing up the legacy events. Exceptional Networking with industry players.
