A Roll of the Dice

Last week, Stonecircle’s Kory Goulais made the long trek to Orillia, Ontario (casino Rama to be exact) to partake in the 2nd annual Ontario First Nations Economic Developers Association conference. Now, I know what you are thinking: “Isn’t that they place where they deal excitement, big time?” To answer your question, yes, it is. Although from September 25 – 27th, it was excitement of a different variety.

The only table that Kory hit while he was in Orillia was his booth table. Taking the gamble that meeting various economic development officers throughout Ontario would lead to some form of work for Stonecircle.

He did, however, deal an abundance of cards, brochures, pens, bags and information out to the various economic development officers from across Ontario. All the while gathering “tells” about what type of work might exist within the various communities.

Tired of the gambling analogies yet?

The conference was a great opportunity to come together with some of the people who are leading the way when it comes to community economic development. It is an exciting time for economic development in many communities and Stonecircle is happy to provide assistance to communities who may need it.
