Spirit River is a small town in northern Alberta. Friends
who live there refer to it as "the ice cube" because it's that
cold. I have had the pleasure of dealing with this school for over 10
years. I have had repeat students on the trips, younger brothers
and sisters over the years and each and every one of them have something
in common. HUGE HEARTS!! |
 As you can see there was a lot to sort through.

 Kasey brought down a beautiful little wrap around tiger that had to be pried away from Michele the teacher supervisor.  The gift packs.  The first stop was a community made up of 5 families. |
 We loaded up the pangas and headed out.  Kasey with tiger in hand.  Once on land they invited us to their homes.  Jimmy and Justin hand out the first shoebox gift packs. |
 Tai has a gift bag for this little 3 year old cutie.  Brittany and Geoff show the kids what's in their pack. |
 Kristy poses with a shy, but happy recipient. "Come on kid make me look good, I'm on film here...sheesh!"  Kasey and Becky hand out a gift pack to this 17 year old. |
 Group picture with some of the community members.  Lower down on the coast is one home with one child. |
 We managed to give everyone in the area a gift pack. Thanks Britney!  Still lower down we came across old friends from another community that were visiting their grandma. |
 Corey shows the kids how to work a yoyo.  Stephen, Corey and Tai pose with these handsome young men. |
 The cutest of the gift giving was a young girl who watched from afar and wouldn't come near us. Kasey knew this would be the recipient of the tiger (once it was pried away from Michele). The little girl ran into her grandma's house and hid. So we left tiger at the foot of the
door. |
