UKRAINIAN CONNECTIONS Whistler Blackcomb staff headed uphill on Sept. 22 for the resort’s third summer “Ukrainian Day.” The events aim to offer support—and more importantly, a day of fun—to the Sea to Sky’s Ukrainian community while war rages on in their home country. After previous invitations to try biking and skiing, participants this time around were treated to a complimentary gondola ride to check out Blackcomb’s hiking trails, plus lunch from the Rendezvous, while learning about employment opportunities from WB department managers. Event organizer Camille Verdier offered thanks in particular to new WB COO Belinda Trembath, who pushed to squeeze in one last Ukrainian Day before the sightseeing season wrapped up, and took time to meet with participants on the sunny Friday afternoon. “Her support was outstanding,” Verdier wrote.
