Heading into the long weekend, we’re reflecting on all of the fun activities Bousfielders took part in over the summer! This summer, Bousfielders were busy competing in our annual volleyball league, attending the Hamilton Art Crawl, and spending time with colleagues and family at our Summer Social BBQ. And of course, we couldn’t miss the opportunity to shout out this year’s OPPI/CIP conference once last time. We’re looking forward to the fall and everything it has in store!
