Camp helps you change your thinking on housing conferences. It changes the ordinary into the amazing - an event where the format, venue, and informal setting come together to enhance the sharing of knowledge and experience between participants and speakers.

This year we took over Hidden Valley Resort for three days, April 24-26, and turned it into Spring Training Camp where we talked about the issues the homebuilding industry faces today, tomorrow, and in the near future.

Attendees came from as far away as Nova Scotia and British Columbia, and from all the places in between! Builders, consultants, manufacturers and utilities were welcomed into an open and welcoming atmosphere which provided an excellent opportunity for networking and learning.

We thank all the speakers for sharing their expertise and time, and for making Spring Training Camp 2016 a success! Below you can find links to their excellent presentations:
