The second day was dedicated to an extensive educational program, welcoming physicians, and specialists from the Kootenay Boundary (KB) region. One of the standout sessions was led by Dr. Paul and Jane Healey, focusing on financial independence. Local experts such as Dr. Lawe, Dr. Merritt, and Dr. Fairbairn captivated participants with insightful discussions on planetary health, general surgery, and advanced ultrasound techniques, encouraging active engagement throughout. Adding to the excitement, UBC medical students and staff surprised everyone with an impromptu flash mob dance, showcasing their enthusiasm and energy. The unique combination of funky shoes and Dr. Raz's adidas track suits added an extra element of fun to the day. The evening was a celebration of camaraderie and joy as attendees danced to the infectious beats of "Stubbs and the" enjoying over two hours of non-stop music and entertainment.
The following morning offered options for relaxation and adventure, with some attendees opting for discounted tickets to Red Mountain Resort while others enjoyed well-deserved rest and relaxation in the comfort of the hotel's amenities, including the hot tub. Feedback from participants unanimously hailed the event as the best Kootenay Conference to date, a testament to the hard work and dedication of the CPD staff and the invaluable contributions of Dr. Melissa Herr, whose creative ideas and tireless efforts were instrumental in planning and executing a memorable conference experience. We have tentatively set the date for February 27, 28, and Mar 1 2025 for the 41st Kootenay Conference!
