The alternative programs at Britannia have started a wonderful back to school tradition. The first Friday back has all the alt programs, plus a few others, meet at Kits Beach for a welcome back BBQ. The volleyball nets are put up, the bbq’s start smoking and the good times start. Over 70 students and their staff had a great time in the sun.

Streetfront followed that BBQ with an annual trip to Lynn Canyon. Barry and Gord led the trip and got all the students involved in some great team building activities. Looks like a great year is shaping up.

September is back and so is Streetfront. 14 new students, joined 8 vets to firm thus year’s class. As per usual – the staff remains the same (going on our 11th wonderful year together).

1st item of business is to get the kids excited about what Streetfront has to offer. What better way to demonstrate this than an action packed camp trip to Alice Lake. The trip’s highlights included a great backpacking trip through Garibaldi Provincial Park, staying overnight at the Elfin Lake Cabin; an adventuresome day at Brohm Lake and more soccer, football, frisbee and campfires than you can hope for.

The kids were fantastic and created a wonderfully cohesive and positive experience for all.

Big thanks again to our camp Gurus: Barry, Gord and Amanda Leo, who work tirelessly to insure a memorable trip for all.
