Speaking Municipally is a proud member of the Alberta Podcast Network, powered by ATB. This week we talked about Alberta Blue Cross which is organizing The Wellness Summit on October 10. The event is "a day to explore fresh perspectives and practices around wellness" and the theme this year is "what it takes to create healthy workplace cultures where everyone thrives." We also talked about some of the events upcoming from or featuring APN members including the Edmonton International Cat Festival and Pecha Kucha Night 34. You can find those and plenty of other events at the APN website.
