As you may have noticed, the FSBC website has been under maintenance recently and many of you have been unable to access the announcement bulletin and events page. We are very sorry for the inconvenience and we assure you that we are doing everything we can to remedy the problems. As it stands now, you can still apply for an online FSBC member account, but we are still unable to do event sign-ins online, so they will continue to be done manually until the problems are fixed. Again, sorry for the inconvenience.

Sincerely,
Cameron Tremblay-Adams
Director of Media Management
