I had the opportunity to take part in the Saskatchewan Safety Council's 37th Annual Industrial Safety Seminar in Saskatoon last week and from my perspective, the Seminar was another resounding success. Close to 700 delegates and just over 70 displayers had the opportunity to be part of one of the biggest safety seminars in Western Canada. Delegates were treated to some world class keynote speakers and many very good safety information presentations. Imagine... 37 years of growing success and safety advocacy!! What an accomplishment! More about the Safety Council and the Industrial Safety Seminar is at http://sasksafety.org.

Much of the credit for the Seminar's success goes to Will Putz, Manager of Special Projects with the Safety Council and his volunteer committee who work tirelessly before and after the Seminar to ensure its ongoing success. The staff of the Safety Council need to be recognized as well for all the "hands-on" work they do in preparing for the Seminar, hosting the event itself and following up, once the event is complete. This team rallies together and works very hard while having fun.

Thanks, Saskatchewan Safety Council, for another job well done. We look forward to the 38th Annual Industrial Safety Seminar in February, 2011 in Regina!!
