Provincial Fair - Day 5

After one last breakfast in the cafeteria we headed back to our dorms to finish packing and tidy our rooms. We played a few games in the lounge while we waited for parents and buses to arrive then said our goodbyes to all of the new friends we've made this week. 

As Provincial Heritage Fair has now come to an end, we all took a moment before we left to reflect on the week. Here are a few of our favourite parts about our time at UBC.

One of the things Graeme liked best about this week was visiting the Chung collection and doing activities at Mountain View Cemetery. He also really liked going to the beaches and the yummy food we got to eat. 

Liam liked everything about Provincial Fair but some of his favourite parts of the week were finding out new information during the tour at MOA and listening to many different stories from everyone at the fair.  

One thing that Max liked best about the week was getting sleep in the Totem dorms at UBC and all the great food we ate in the cafeteria. He also enjoyed visiting Tower Beach and doing the tour and treasure hunt at Granville Island. 

As Vedanshi had been to Provincial Fair before, what she enjoyed about her experience this time was all responsibilities she had being part of the alumni team. She also really liked spending time relaxing at the beach.

Sarah was very proud of the Richmond delegation this year. She was so impressed by how well they worked together as a group, how engaged everyone was in the activities this week and how well they represented our community. Some of her favourite parts of our week at UBC was visiting the Museum of Anthropology and Chung Collection, as well as the murder mystery activity led by the alumni team. Sarah also really enjoyed getting to know the chaperones from the other regions and seeing the alumni and older students take on a leadership role at the fair.
