The Travelling Annual Road Show or TARS as it's known to WCTA members, is a series of educational events that take place throughout the regions of BC each summer. Often these talks are CEC point accredited but frequently topics range far beyond pesticide use. Talsk have ranged from sprayer nozzle selection and calibration to using trained dogs to chase geese to errant golf ball liability to sustainable management practices and everything in between.
After 18 years of service as the WCTA Executive Assistant, Viola Freer and her family have relocated to Prince George for a new position her husband Roger has taken.

I took him up on his offer and now that Tab is President, I thought we had better get the feature article written and published before his year at the helm of the WCTA was over.
