Greetings to the Membership,
Thank you to everyone for your tremendous support of our recent “Funspiel.” The event was completely sold out and proved to be an outstanding day of networking, great food, and plenty of fun.
Congratulations to all the winners, and a sincere thank you to those who sponsored, attended, and helped organize the day’s activities. Your continued commitment is what strengthens and builds our Association.
What a unique winter we have experienced so far. The wind has certainly played a significant role in snow clearing operations. Historically, Winnipeg sees an average of approximately 117 cm (46 inches) of snowfall during the winter maintenance season. While we have not yet reached that benchmark, there is still ample time, as we all know that March and even early April can deliver significant snow events. On average, snow remains on the ground in Winnipeg for approximately 132 days each season.
We want to recognize and acknowledge the tremendous efforts of our members. Your 24/7 response to snow events ensures that our city continues to function. Without your professionalism and rapid mobilization, Winnipeg would quite simply shut down during major storms. Your work protects mobility, safety, and critical infrastructure across the region.
I understand that several members will be attending ConExpo in Las Vegas. This is an exceptional event and an excellent opportunity to explore new equipment, emerging technologies, and industry best practices. I encourage you to fully participate in the seminars and networking opportunities. Time invested at events like this often delivers long-term dividends for your operations and our industry.
Safe travels to those attending and thank you again for your continued dedication.
Regards,
Bruce Henley
