To BCIS' members
Dear members,
We would like to offer our apologies to the members for the mixup regarding BCIS August’s meeting.
Even though we sent an announcement to advertise the meeting on the 24 (instead of the 31), by some unfortunate glitch, we forgot to notify the person in charge at Confederation Centre regarding the change of date from our regular meetings.
