My Workstation Buddy

One of the cutest joys of our office lately is Lewis - our little office Mascot at the Vancouver office.

He has been in and out of the office for the last couple of months and how can you not think he is the most adorable little creature. Lewis is a pekingese x chihuahua and probably the most unique doggie I have seen of his type. I was searching on Google to see if there were other dogs that resembled him – but nothing! He is one of kind. He’ll make you smile every time you see him.

We Love Roxy Snowboarder Robin Van Gyn & Her Quest to Win a Nissan Hypercube!

After a long road road trip in her 89' Jeep Cherokee, Robin
decided it was time for a new car. Not that she don't like the vintage look or
have chronic back pain from lack of lumbar support, the old girl has just had
her time and is ready to be sleeping in a garage somewhere.

Through the
grapevine came Hypercube.ca where 5,000 Canadians were applying to win one of
50 Nissan Hypercubes. Nissan hand selected 500 of who they thought were the
coolest Canadians to go on to create a bio by canvas and Robin was one of the lucky
ones.

Her canvas ended up being a combination of the many things that she has her
fingers into and it really says a lot about Robin's crazy exciting life.

Show your support by voting for Robin now: http://www.hypercube.ca/en/Canvas.aspx?id=17debd73-2950-48aa-a1c9-cb6e861de8c4&lang=en

Roxy Chickadee Jam at Grouse Mountain – Vancouver!

The ROXY Chickadee Jam went down last weekend at Grouse Mountain,
with over 55 girls competing for $5000 in cash and prizes. Riders from all over
the Canada competed, giving the crowds a taste of the progressive riding
happening in women’s snowboarding in Canada. The course and conditions were
perfect with soft landings, sunny skies and great music pumping all day. With
her stylish 540’s and 360’s over the tables, Terri Dreger
took top honors including $1000 cash and an all expenses paid trip to the ROXY Chicken Jam March 27 – 29
in Mammoth, CA where she will be competing in the qualifying rounds of the
slopestyle contest. Sarah Niblock sealed the deal in the AM category taking
home a ton of new product.


Marie-Andre Racine and Breanna Strangeland place 2nd
and 3rd respectively in the PRO category. Their riding was so
impressive that Marie-Andre also took home Best Trick for her 720 off
the last jump and Breanna earned the hearts of the other competitors with Riders
Choice.

 

The event would not have been complete without an
appearance from our fuzzy mascot friends Chickadee and Canadian Moose – giving
the girls a run for their money with huge stylish airs and tweaked out
boardslides on the huge flat down rail. There was also an appearance by Roxy
pro snowboarder Robin Van Gyn as the official MC of the event.
Celebrity judge Roberta Rodger, Athlete Marketing and Management Director for Infamous Management, was also on hand all day to hang out and score competitors runs.


We are all really looking forward to next year’s Chickadee Jam – check out the results and photos below!
