Social Media Breakfast Calgary #43, 8:30 am - 10:30am, Friday, August 23, 2013, SAIT Polytechnic
(firmenpresse) - CALGARY, ALBERTA -- (Marketwired) -- 08/19/13 -- The Calgary Social Media Breakfast (SMBYYC) is pleased to announce the August Topic:
The Devastating Alberta Flood of 2013: What WAS, IS and YET to Come!
The Alberta Flood of 2013 saw devastation the likes we've never seen before. Neighbourhoods laid by the rushing river, the entire downtown flooded and evacuated, even the Stampede grounds were damaged just weeks before celebrating year 101.
The Social Media Breakfast Calgary Chapter will break from usual social media traditional topics to invite a special panel to gather for Flood Discussion this August 23, 2013.
The Flood Panel will discuss the actions taken during the flood, what is still expected following the flood and what preventative measure will be taken in future.
Speakers from (at), (at), (at) and (at)will gather at (at) Friday morning to discuss their organization's role during the chaos of the flood, now as recovery efforts continue, and in the future as the rebuild happens.
Seating is limited. Please RSVP at
