Mr. Holbeck discussed and trained the board on GAVEL Training specifically in the areas of Governance and Strategic Planning.
After GAVEL Training the board discussed football and numbers. All members made a firm resolution after discussion to support the Langford Lions football team, Coach Alberts, and the future of Lion Football by investing in the program in any way possible.
