Radon Action Month wrapped up last week with a week of Radon Education workshops.
Radon Environmental hosted two Radon Education Seminars in Regina and Saskatoon, as part of the “Tackle Radon” initiative, launched in conjunction with the Saskatchewan Lung Association to raise radon awareness and encourage testing in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Andrew Greene, Tackle Radon Ambassador and former Saskatchewan Roughrider, even stopped in at the Regina workshop. A lucky attendee in both Regina and Saskatoon was drawn to win in a limited edition football autographed by Andrew and Adam Bighill, Winnipeg Bluebomber and Grey Cup Champion!
The week ended with the 8th Annual B.C. Radon Workshop in Abbotsford, BC hosted by the BC Lung Foundation. This year’s workshop had a record attendance of over 100 attendees, including many local realtors! The session was divided in the afternoon with a special session for realtors led by Dr. Noah Quastel from Simon Fraser University/British Columbia Lung Foundation. Workshop presenters included representatives from Health Canada, BC Centre for Disease Control, CAREX, C-NRPP, CARST, Interior Health, Fraser Valley Regional District, SFU, North Vancouver City Library and Radon Environmental.
