The theme this year was "Winning the War against Prostate Cancer"

The keynote speaker was retired Canadian Armed Forces General Paul Mason who gave an outstanding opening address on applying the principals of war strategy to Winning the War against Prostate Cancer.

The opening dinner cocktail reception included a military display by the Calgary Highlanders, with soldiers present demonstrating the tools of their trade. In his opening remarks, Bob Shiell said that reinforcements were on the way to lend assistance.  At that point the doors to the Ballroom opened and the pipes and drums of the Calgary Highlands marched in.  They put on a 20 minute performance of drumming, piping and Highland dancing. This was followed by a sit-down dinner and General Mason's presentation.

For the fun night, in keeping with the theme, we presented "Stage Door Canteen", in reference to the WWII canteens for serviceman.  Delegates enjoyed wine, beer and nibbles in the foyer before dinner.  When the ballroom doors opened they were greeted by the Prime Time Big Band playing the Glenn Miller hit, In The Mood.  A delicious buffet dinner followed, and then the dance floor opened. A big success.
