Tire Sure La Neige -- Yum!


Merci Beaucoup Tout Le Monde!

A somewhat belated Thank You to all of you who attended our Carnival d'hiver et Cabane a Sucre at Onion Lake on March 4, jointly hosted with CPF Kitimat. As many as 200 people joined us for a fun filled afternoon of cross country skiing, snow shoe races, snow fort building, sledding, French music, and the delicious tire sur la neige -- maple syrup on snow -- provided by our Kitimat counterparts.

Bonhomme made an appearance, hungry tummies were filled at the canteen, and those who felt the chill warmed up at the fire pit. The Snow Valley Nordic Ski Club was delighted to introduce many of you to its facilities and we were able to showcase the work of CPF to the club's members and others out for a ski.

A special thank you from CPF Terrace to our event coordinator, Carolyn DeFreitas. Other key volunteers from Terrace included Julie and Dag Livgard, Corina Cleveland, Stella and Scott Peden, Nita Back and Trish Francoeur, Flo Sheppard, Madeleine Link and Ella Martindale, Bart DeFreitas and many others...we are so sorry if we have inadvertently left out your name. Merci Suzanne Dorais for the fantastic French music!

The winner of our Maple Syrup Basket Door Prize was the Peasgood family. Congratulations! Congratulations also to those kids who completed their "Maple Passport" and entered our other draws.

We enjoyed working with the Kitimat CPF Branch very much, and look forward to making this event happen again next year!

CPF Terrace also gratefully acknowledges the support of the BC Gaming Branch which helped make this event possible.
