Thursday

It's our last full day in Regina. It's been wonderful since we arrive at Monday night. We had a welcoming committee of around 20 people which we didn’t expect to see so many people at 10:30 at night! We have all had a wonderful time thus far. We meet the district governor on Tuesday over lunch with our GSE orientation and it’s all been nonstop since. We had our first vocational visit yesterday and I went to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police College (RCMP) training college. It was great to learn that we using a very similar model for training their new recruits and existing staff as they do. They do have a better way of disciplining their people (push-ups and sit ups!!). We are off to the RCMP museum today followed by Dairy Queen for lunch, were we will have blizzards, what ever they are! The girls have found a professional shoe shopper (and ex GSE member) from the Rotary club of Regina Oskaya, so we are heading to a ‘shopping mall’ this afternoon. Having a wonderful time here and will need to start posting some photos very soon! Matt

Hi you guys! Sounds like things are in full swing for you already. I hope that you enjoyed your blizzards - one of the first things I had when I got home! Have fun.

Have you found your low carb refreshments yet? Hope you brought your rubber boots and rain coats as it is supposed to rain tomorrow and possibly turn to snow. See you when you get to Estevan.
