Silviculture Magazine is looking for authors to contribute 700 word (max) piece for publication. If you are a planter, supervisor, tree runner, checker, brusher, etc and would like a chance to put your love (or is it love/hate?) for the reforestation work you do, into words for others to read and enjoy, email us a submission at kate@silviculturemagazine.com. Topic can vary but we’re looking for personal insight and reflection on the work we do, life in camp, the silviculture industry as a whole, criticisms, celebrations, anecdotes, prose, ideas, photos etc.

Tree planting makes the rest of your life easy.

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international medical humanitarian organization working in more than 60 countries to assist people whose lives are threatened by conflict, neglect, disease or catastrophe. Every day, MSF aid workers from around the world provide lifesaving assistance to people affected by disaster, conflict, epidemics, or exclusion from healthcare. MSF works independently of political, religious or other motivations, delivering medical aid based on human need, often in difficult geographical or political contexts, where others cannot or choose not to go.

On November 9th, 2011 medical professionals are invited to join us for an evening presentation to learn more about how you can join MSF’s pool of dedicated aid workers.

You'll meet experienced MSF aid workers from the Vancouver area and hear their stories of life “in the field.” Together with a Recruitment Officer from the Human Resources Department, they will discuss MSF requirements and the application process. The event will take place at the UBC’s Medical Student & Alumni Centre, 2750 Heather Street at 7:00 PM.

Please register at this address as places are limited: http://vancouvermsfrecruitment.eventbrite.com/

"Heaven needs a Mega-Baller too."

-Steph, PM

"LIFER" a new comedy about treeplanting by Le Nouveau International.

A sequel to last year's OGOKI NIGHTS, this year re-unites the planters, or "sluts" from Lark and Marty's crew. Tina Clark is now a 2nd year planter, and is forced to ponder whether or not treeplanting is the life for her. New low-ballers, old mega-ballers and the insanity of last year will be crystallized one more time in this bilingual burlesque about the subculture of tree-planting.

With Kirsten Rasmussen, Sandi Armstrong, Katie Leggitt, Alain Mercieca, Mark Louch, Simon Chavarie, Cath Moreau, Paul Naiman and Maité Sinave.

OCTOBER 19-22nd, 20h00.

Reservations 514-284-3939, or info@theatrestecatherine.com
