Margaret Reid loves Chilliwack. She grew up attending Chilliwack’s public schools, her first job was at the Chilliwack Family YMCA and she attended many events at the long-gone icons: the Paramount Theatre and Chilliwack Coliseum. She left for schooling and returned to raise her family with her husband (who she met at Chilliwack Middle School.)

Experienced in board leadership with a deep understanding of Chilliwack’s educational system and a passion for positive change, her professional experience is unparalleled.
