First off was a charity fashion show at Robert Bateman Secondary, which also had a photo booth.
Students did a great job and fun was had by all.


The next night I was off to do head shots for some business students at Trinity Western University.
Was almost late as the freeway was a mess like it often is on a stormy night.
Next up was one of my fave events!! HSBC Vancouver Sevens which is two days of action packed rugby …45 games in all plus fan action galore.

This event attracts many costumed fans with groups of people all wearing the same outfit.

One of the highlights of the event for me is seeing Abbotford’s Justin Douglas play for team Canada! I had the pleasure of coaching Justin at football while he was in High School.
This event marked a big milestone for Justin with him scoring his 100th career try in Canada’s 3rd game on day one of the event. Sadly in the end Canada finished in 14th place with Fiji winning the top prize!!








The extra part of the show is in the stands! The fans (all 38,00 0 who attended each day) are awesome. Many come dressed in crazy costumes and are energy filled and cheer their guts out for every team. Of course they cheer loudest for Canada and Fiji the two local faves!!
This event is special to me for another reason as well One of the stand out players on Team Canada played football for me when I use to coach High School Football and this event is the only time I get to see him in action LIVE!!
He did not disappoint as he score 3 trys during the tourney.
In the end our Home Team did not walk away with any hardware but they took extra long in their walk around the stadium after being eliminated. Looked like anyone wanting a picture or autograph got just what they wanted from their fave player!! I am already looking forward to next years event.
