Community Involvement

Nurses Appreciation Week. May 10-14

What great fun we had in showing our appreciation for the hard work of all Trillium Health Centre nurses. Their work is important, significant and vital and we thank them all.

Our events for the week included a Nurses Appreciation Afternoon on Wednesday May 12, 2010 where we served light refreshments and gave away great prizes. Thank you to all the nurses and staff who came out.

On Thursday May 13th, Virtual One was honoured to be invited to the Trillium Health Centre Nurses Recognition banquet held at the Oasis Convention Centre. The evening included a wonderful tribute to all the accomplished nurses and recognized their hard work and commitment. Our President and CEO, David Bird, was on hand to personally give away the our door prize of a $500 Taboo Golf Resort gift certificate. What happened when two winners ran up with the same winning ticket? Without hesitation, Mr. Bird donated an additional $500 Taboo Golf Resort G/C to the lucky winner.

On May 14th, Virtual One participated in the Nurses Vendor Fair. This was the most rewarding event as were able to meet all nurses and thank them personally for their devotion and contribution to our community. Angus George (Member Service Representative) and Anthony Angellotti (Investment Advisor) were on hand to give away goodies and prizes.
