Hello friends,
This marks the last installment of my blog to you all. I have really enjoyed sharing with you my experience with Weyerhaeuser and my many outdoor adventures in the Peace Country. With the arrival of September, many are headed back to school but I am looking forward to another 4 months of learning in Grande Prairie before returning for my last four months of school in January.

Hello Good People,
I have some terrible news. It’s my last week here at Weyerhaeuser Vancouver Parallam. I have become so familiar with the plant, the people and even its distinct smell; it will take some time to adjust back to a quiet student life.
Over the past few months, it has been quite a ride as an intern here.

On a recent weekend daytrip to beautiful Merritt, British Columbia, I couldn’t resist the temptation to drive by Tolko’s Nicola Valley Division on the outskirts of town. After hearing so much about the operation over my three HR assignments at Tolko, I wanted to see the site for myself – I’ve included a picture of me in front of an old Tolko logging truck overlooking the Nicola Valley Division.
