About Edmonton Chapter PDF Print E-mail

La Salle College Old Boys Association, Edmonton Chapter started in 1985 and was incorporated under the Provincial Act of Government of Alberta. The Edmonton Chapter is a non-profit organization comprising of approximately 50 members.
Mr. Yip Kim Hung Ralph (葉劍雄) of class 1962, our Honorary President, writes about the birth of the Edmonton Chapter as follows.

In the summer 1978, Mr. A.O. Sales, the Honorary President of LSCOBA came to Edmonton for the Commonwealth Game with the Hong Kong Team. The LSCOBA President, Dr. Lawrence Chan (1962) my classmate, wrote me to gather as many La Salle old boys as we can to meet with Mr. & Mrs. Sales. I was then a new immigrant, coming to Edmonton in 1976. Luckily my brother Anthony Yip (1967) introduced me to Michael Kwong (1967) who was a popular person in Edmonton. At no time, he arranged three tables of old boys and families together to meet with the Sales. It was really a memorable night. Our Old Boys Association was not formed until many years later.
