An exciting start to the cross country season

This week's season opening cross country meet at Vanier Park was fantastic fun. Coach Ryan's motivational speech set the perfect tone for a great afternoon of racing, the Tennyson Tigers won lots of place ribbons, and, a beaver decided to join in the action!

And, about that beaver. As if the Grade 3 girl's race couldn't get any more exciting, a beaver decided to saunter out of the lake to see what all the cheering was about. Thanks Junko for the video of the unexpected appearance.
