Message From Graham Fawcett, CVF President
Hello all,
Blessed by incredible weather, good spirits, excellent walks and a lot of friendship, the combined group of walkers from the Club Volkssport-Nord Sud and the Dartmouth Volkssport Club have returned to the mainland from a week of walking on the Magdalen Islands in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
Congratulations to Lionel and Lisette, plus all the others who pitched in to help make this a most memorable Volkssport event.
Imagine more than 150Volkssporters on five tiny islands - that's visibility!
I have begun to receive some pictures taken last week and will put up the best that I receive, if people want to send them to me by email attachment at gfwcettt@rogers.com.
The web site address to see the pictures already posted is:

Bookmark it for future reference and visit often to see the most recent additions.
Again, congratulations to all involved. Your hard work over the past year to make this possible had paid off.
I know the participants will be talking about this past week for years to come.
Graham
