As the <strong>Association</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>BC</strong> <strong>Forest</strong> Pr<strong>of</strong>essionals celebrates<br />

<strong>Faces</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong><strong>Forest</strong>ry</strong><br />

The 60 th Anniversary <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Association</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>BC</strong> <strong>Forest</strong> Pr<strong>of</strong>essionals<br />

our 60 th anniversary, we believe it is the perfect time to<br />

honour our outstanding members. We feel our members<br />

deserve recognition for all the great work they do that<br />

has contributed to the success <strong>of</strong> our association and the<br />

forest sector as a whole. This booklet commemorates<br />

the A<strong>BC</strong>FP’s 60th anniversary by featuring photos <strong>of</strong><br />

several members along with engaging quotes.<br />

In the past ten years, the A<strong>BC</strong>FP and forestry in <strong>BC</strong><br />

has gone through significant changes. The revision<br />

<strong>of</strong> the <strong>Forest</strong>ers Act in 2003, has allowed <strong>BC</strong> to<br />

remain a leader in the forest sector by being the first<br />

association in Canada to accept forest technologists<br />

as members. We now have a mandate for advocacy and<br />

have instituted continuing a competency program.
