October Member Meeting + AMM 🏡

STEHBA Members — mark your calendars!

Our October Member Meeting is also our Annual Members Meeting (AMM) and we’d love to have you join us.
📅 Tuesday, October 6
⏰ 12:00–1:30 PM
📍 Wildflowers Farm | St. Thomas
We’re pleased to have OHBA joining us virtually for an industry update, bringing members up to speed on what’s happening provincially and the issues impacting our industry.

We’ll also take care of our annual association business, share local updates, look ahead to what’s coming for STEHBA, and leave plenty of time for conversation and connection.

Your involvement matters. Our association is strongest when our members are engaged, informed and part of the conversation.
Lunch will be provided.

Registration is required through our Events Calendar. https://members.25percentmore.com/eventcalendar
We hope to see you there!

Join us for our September Member Meeting generously hosted by Geerlinks Home Hardware Building Centre and Design Gallery on September 1, 5-7:30pm.

This relaxed, networking-style evening will give STEHBA members the opportunity to meet local municipal candidates, introduce themselves, ask questions, and have meaningful one-on-one conversations about the issues impacting our industry and our communities.

Rather than a formal speaking event, the evening is all about conversation, giving you the chance to get to know the people seeking to represent our communities while spending time with fellow STEHBA members.

Light refreshments and food will be served, and we’ll have a door prize too!

Registration is required via our website.
Non-members are welcome to inquire about attending by emailing [email protected]
