Yesterday my family attended the Shiver Shaker at Archie Browning Sports Centre. This event is just the kind of quirky good time that makes me fall in love with Esquimalt all over again. There were KinderEgg and Spoon games, bowling and a real live band playing right on the ice! There was an incredible face painting artist, the usual super friendly staff and the Lions were out there too! These dedicated volunteers were giving away hot dogs, hot chocolate and sno-cones.
Thanks everyone for making this trip to the Arena extra special! I hope it becomes an annual party!
