The story behind our new name
The vast tree lines that stretch across the region have long been a symbol of pride and identity for the area.
This natural protection that ascends overhead with its sprawling support embodies what we deliver to our members. Providing a safe, trustworthy
environment for sustainable and professional growth.
Where everything is connected, resources are shared and success is achieved together.
That’s what our legacy has been about since our inception and what’s made us a great organization to be a part of ever since.
Giving members a home away from home where they can find sanctuary, receive specialized training, support, resources and a nurturing business network.
This is a place where we can all work together under one roof to create something greater than the sum of our parts.
