This summer, our interns made sure to make the most of their placements throughout the region to visit and participate in different events. From introducing family to local stops, to racing through the woods, our interns have made this a summer to remember and are excited to revisit the events they loved next year.
Danielle, Economic Development Intern
“Downtown Summerfest in Prince George was a lot of fun. I brought family from out of town and they loved it. The local food and petting zoo were definitely a highlight for us. My niece and sister-in-law even bought gifts for their friends from the artisan vendors!”
Brian, Business Development and Communications Intern
“Terrace Riverboat Days has something for everyone. I really enjoyed the street fair in particular. So fun to watch magician, artists and dancers. The event is a great time of year to showcase local shops to out-of-towners. I enjoyed directing people to my favourite stops for gifts and food.”
Deklan, Economic Development Intern
“This year was the first time I tried mountain biking. Participating in the men’s novice cross-country race at Hot Day at Otway was a fun way to show off my new-found skills with people of all ages. I really felt like part of the mountain biking community. Overall, an awesome event.”
Shaylyn, Local Government Intern
“I had never been to ArtsWells before this year. It was great to see people of all ages enjoying the variety of music and art. As someone who grew up in Quesnel, it was fantastic to discover that such a vibrant community event existed just next door! I’ll definitely go again.”
