My son loved his first Try It Day experience! Heiho Dojo did a great job by making it fun for the kids by introducing them to jujitsu with games! There were lots of smiles and laughs from the kids, AND from the parents watching! The Centre for Creative Arts was a hit as well, and my son would have gladly stayed for the entire afternoon! Our community is very lucky to have such amazing organizations and sponsors to make this all possible! Thank you Grande Prairie Regional Sport Connection for the opportunity, we look forward to the next Try It Day!

I was especially impressed with Shantera Dive services program held at the Beaverlodge pool. They had a group of young people fitted with equipment, given an orientation and given practical education in the water in about an hour and fifteen minutes. Following that, the participants were able to spend about 45 minutes using their new skill to explore the depths of the pool. It was so neat for me to watch as a parent, I have never seen my son so determined and attentive during any lesson. He thoroughly enjoyed the experience and continues to request more dive time. This group did a fantastic job carrying for the diverse group of kids and giving the best and safest experience possible.

Thank you so much for your direction and assistance in locating fundraising groups and/or grants that would suit our needs. our group has a great time volunteering with the south Peace Horse Club in making the X Country event a success.  Please keep us in mind for any future fundraising events.

Thank you for the opportunity provided for my daughters to try some new activities.  We were introduced to facilities in Grande Prairie that we had never visited and our daughters were able to try out an activity.  We will definitely visit these venues again.

Thank You So Much! Everything you have sent is such a huge help. I just moved to Grande Prairie a few weeks ago and don’t really have any contacts! Thanks!

Thank you so much for this day! My daughter was thrilled with cheer. She plans to enroll with her friend next fall. She also called her grandparents after her golf lesson and set up some practice dates. Please forward my thanks to the wonderful volunteers who have made this day possible. We truly enjoyed all of it!
