It may very well have been jungle fever, as this year's theme was "In the Jungle" and the venue was transformed into a tropical setting with youngsters wearing delightful costumes depicting such wild creatures as flamingos, giant insects, lions, giraffes and elephants. A number of solo performances were also presented by both Senior and Junior skaters that showcased their skating skills and love for the sport. Audience members were also encouraged to help support the figure skating club by bidding on a number of items available at the silent auction held upstairs in the arena or treating themselves to a snack at the food booth.

Excuse me if my national pride is showing and I apologize if I ever for a moment doubted the dream of having the Winter Olympics in Vancouver. In the end they taught us a lot about ourselves as a people. Over the course of 17 days and with the whole world watching we demonstrated that although humble about our achievements, we remain both resilient and tenacious when reaching our goals. We can build mountains of snow out of scaffolding and hay bales. Perhaps above all we taught the world that we Canadians have a very special brand of humor - we can laugh at ourselves. I am Canadian. I sing my national anthem slightly off key and I proudly stumble through that little section they changed a few years back. I am Canadian. I don't say "eh" as often as some might think but I have been known to go "out and about". I am Canadian. I studied French in the public school system for 11 years and understand key phrases such as, "Parler lentement si'I vous plait" et "Je ne sais pas." On the afternoon of Feb. 28, it may be safe to say that every Canadian was gathered around a television set somewhere watching the gold medal match up between this country and our neighbor to the south. And these same people gave a collective sigh of relief when Sidney Crosby scored the game winning goal reaffirming our belief in this hockey nation. But it was more than a hockey game — Canada came of age that day — from sea to sea to sea we were for a moment united, and as a Canadian, that is a dream worth believing in.
