Hostelling International - Canada - Pacific Mountain Region is implementing an ongoing and important process of engaging the organization's "owners", essentially members that care about hostelling and the association beyond just staying with us. This is an ongoing initiative so please watch for notices of engagement sessions taking place in Alberta and British Columbia.
