Ask for Wood. Y

Wood's natural insulating properties make
wood buildings like schools, recreation
centres and health care facilities more
eneray efficient than concrete or steel. That
reduces operating costs and the impact on |
the enyironment. Wood is nature's choice,
so make it yours.

Ask for wood. Build with pride in.B.C.
