Office Closed Monday Nov. 13

The GymBC office will be closed on Monday, November. 13, to observe the Remembrance Day Holiday. We will be back in the office on Tuesday, November 14. 

Remembrance Day in Canada promotes a greater understanding of Canadians’ efforts and honours the sacrifices and achievements of those who have served and those who supported our country on the home front. We encourage you to take a moment of silence on November 11 to reflect.
