The 8th Annual BC Provincial Showcase was off to an amazing start as students, dignitaries, volunteers and chaperones and a large public audience gathered at UBC’s Student Nest in Vancouver, BC to support the Opening Ceremony.

On July 6, led by a piper and Musqueam Elder Larry Grant the students paraded to the atrium of the newly-built NEST student union building to showcase their inquiry projects. After thoughtful, engaging speeches from dignitaries the students met with a continual stream of parents, dignitaries and a curious general public.

Many thanks are due to the volunteers and chaperones who enthusiastically embraced each experience and reflected the students’ passion for history. For more information visit the Heritage Fairs Alumni Blog.
