The Fort St. John 2020 BC Winter Games Host Society recently caught up with Carolyn Krauss, President of the 1984 BC Winter Games, to discuss her Games experience. Carolyn Krauss said volunteering for the 1984 BC Winter Games gave her confidence and leadership skills that she uses to this day. 

The 2019 Premier’s Awards for Indigenous Youth Excellence in Sport recognized 36 recipients during the month of October and November. The Province of British Columbia and the Indigenous Sport, Physical Activity & Recreation Council (I·SPARC) established the Premier’s Awards to celebrate the outstanding achievements of Indigenous youth athletes throughout the province who have achieved excellence in sport and demonstrate leadership qualities.

As we get closer to the 2020 BC Winter and BC Summer Games, we’d like to share the roles of the BC Games Society Staff who make the Games such a success, along with their favorite moment in sport.

Among the inductees were BC Games alumnus Rawnie Weststrate, Team BC alumnus Aaron Lattimer, and BC Games and Team BC alumnus Sue Demuynck. 

With the Fort St. John 2020 BC Winter Games approaching, now is a great time to review the Culture of the Games. The BC Games Society is committed to promoting and maintaining a culture of positivity, respect and inclusion.
