The Venue

Beach Club Resort in Parksville

The conference was held at the Beach Club Resort in Parksville, B.C. on 2018 April 20th and 21st.   




Heraldry Displays

educational display

This is the main display of our set-up in the conference's Vendors' Room.  The display table is dominated by Steve Cowan's educational display made up of two fold-outs of three panels each.  Lying on the table are examples of shields and arms and the different ways in which they can be depicted.




Hjalmarson family tree poster

Just to the right of the main display is a very nice depiction of David Hjalmarson's family, going back centuries.




Parkinson family tree poster

Further to the right, on a side table, is a very wide tree of the Parkinson family in Barbados, the family being connected to our branch treasurer, Don Mayers.
