I had a blast during Tuna Tournament Week (Aug17-23) in my native Wedgeport. I volunteered to produce online content for the tournament including video production, photography and Facebook posts. I learned that it takes a village of nearly 200 volunteers to make this festival successful. We had another great week with awesome attendance to all the events!

I created a highlight reel of the week's events as my thanks to all the tireless volunteers. Enjoy!

Welcome to the heart of the community! This 20-minute highlight reel captures the best moments from the 21st Annual Wedgeport Tuna Tournament & Festival. Fea...

Jeux régionaux de l'Acadie 2025 - NÉ

Ce fut un grand honneur d'être choisi comme vidéographe officiel des jeux régionaux qui ont eu lieu à Par-en-bas. C'était incroyable d'être témoin de l'esprit sportif et du talent que ces jeunes athlètes ont démontré. Comparé aux jeux précédents auxquels j'ai participé en tant que bénévole dans les années 1990 (dans le département des statistiques), j'ai été très impressionné par le montant de participants des jeux d'aujourd'hui. Quel bel événement !

******************
It was a great honour to be chosen as the official videographer for the regional games held in Par-en-bas. It was incredble to witness the sportsmanship and talent that these young atheletes showcased. Compared to the previous games that I was a volunteer back in the 1990s (in the statistics department), I was very impressed by the scale of the games today. What a great event!
