The Canada Winter Games WOW

 Our City was an  amazing host.
The Youth from across all of Canada gathered here from Feb 13- March 2 and brought  all their wonderful energy via the 2015 Canada Winter Games.
Equal to their enthusiasm was that of all their families coaches and the volunteers and organizers of which I was one of.
I joined the  Media Planning Committee  last year in June and man was it alot of work but no regrets in having done it. The 50 plus photographers that we had as volunteers - the majority of which were amateurs, gave so much of their time and talent. Nikon Canada also came out with an arsenal of cameras and lenses for us to have access to which really stepped up the game for many of us.
These are but a few of my images.You can see many other images by going onto the Canada Winter Games site and see many others by going to the Photographs  in the middle of this page:

I am slowly working on a slideshow of images but it will be a bit before I get it done as I took off the three weeks and have to get back on track for my clients!
Hope you had a chance to either enjoy the Games or hear about  the amazing people and their accomplishments . So Proud to be born and raised here in P.G.
