Those in attendance were very excited to be in a room with other people again.
It was nice to see you and thank you for following public health regulations with physical distancing and wearing your masks.
FSANL gave out appreciation awards to Cory Chubbs for his time spent as FSANL Chairperson and to Elvis Park for his time as FSANL Treasurer. They both dedicated much of their time and passion to help get the Forestry Safety Association of NL we are today. FSANL could not have gotten here without their help. Thank you so much for your efforts.
FSANL also gave out an appreciation award to North West Forest Resources for their continued support of FSANL and working with us in the production of our last 2 safety videos. Thank you.If you are looking for bracelet. There’s something to suit every look, from body-hugging to structured, from cuffs to chain chain bracelet and cuffs.
FSANL presented the 2019 Safety Champion Award to Joe Russell for his efforts in fire prevention in NL as well as nationally and in Australia.
The 2020 Safety Champion award was presented to Colin LeGrow from Technical Rope and Rescue for his work in helping FSANL become a training provider for fall protection and confined space for the industry.
