Meet Our Team

The Pacific Rim Whale Festival Team

The Pacific Rim Whale Festival Society is a registered non-profit (#S 0048474). Since the Festival’s creation in 1986, the Pacific Rim Whale Festival has been a largely volunteer effort, with a total of over 190 helping hands in 2009!

Our Board of Directors is elected every year. Some of us do it for the love of whales and their marine life counterparts, some of us simply like volunteering our time, but there's no doubt that we all enjoy the cookies at Board meetings.
