A grand ending to Pulling Together 2013. A vision fulfilled. Hundreds of paddlers entered the Kamloopa PowWow at the invitation of Chief Shane Gottfriedson. An incredible journey filled with thousands of stories. Friendships and connections made. And soon more pics will follow.
Thanks to all volunteers, ground crew, planners, sponsors, paddlers, youth, safety crew and law enforcement agencies and Public Service. Together we made another successful year of Pulling Together.

My body was not co operating with my soul, it hurt being asked to leave, cause I could not keep up with the rythem of power, I suffered the next day, but vowed to get back, yes, I am an elder, yes I shared my tears, yes I have my determination, I thank you all, for putting a smile into my heart,
The true meaning is Victory, my organization e-mailed me of the events to happen, I have not picked a paddle in three years and wow, what fun.
