We have 20 drivers and 20 buses on site, along with five support staff. The drivers, all from Edmonton, have shown exceptional professionalism. We should also recognize Pat Nickerson, Donna Crowle, and Alex Fawcett, who have been working with the drivers, standing out in the blazing sun, and helping to ensure the safe offloading of the athletes.

Yesterday, we received a very nice review from one of the game’s organizers.
“I wanted to pass along some feedback I received from the Swimming Coaches – ‘the transportation was great, and everything worked very well.’ Thank you so much for all your work on transportation, as it is a big job. Your efforts are greatly appreciated.”
