Grade Two students who participated in this autumn;s Kokanee Fish Festival were tickled pink when the paintings they made were formally presented to their elementary schools on Friday by Hailey Ross, the festival organizer and coordinator of the North Columbia Environmental Society.
Hailey spent much of her morning and part of her afternoon presenting the paintings to city schools.
Here are some photos of those presentations:
