Our Evening with the Canucks at the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver

Last Wednesday the 15th my Dad, myself and many other people went to the Fairmont Hotel. We were all taking part in a dinner with the Canucks in aid of Special Olympics.

Before dinner we all met the players and then we were spread out to different stations to play games.I did the table hockey with a few athletes and adults, I was the timer. My Dad worked on the dart station. He played with Matt Cooke, Alex Burrows and Josh Green. They played a match and my Dad lost. We then went for dinner.

I was sat at a table with Tommi Santala. We ate a starter but I can’t remember what it was called. We then had our main meal of steak, potatoes, asparagus and carrots, it was tasty. For desert we each had a Chocolate skate and puck- yummy!

After desert we played a game of Heads and Tails, I always called heads. The final four players went up to the stage. During the evening there was a silent auction going on, but we didn’t bid on anything. The evening was coming to a close, we decided to go the pub for a drink. At the pub we talked about how much we had enjoyed ourselves and decided we wanted to come back next year.
