The reminder section

This year was another successful year for Tropicana. We organized the Black History month presentations for the school. We went to the U of T's"I Know I Can Conference". Other activities that happend was that we conducted some workshops dealing with writing a resume.

On the 18th of April to the 25th of April, two of our members from Tropicana (Victor Onigbinde and Christian Muabi) had gone to the YMCA Youth Exchange trip to Calgary. They went with 13 other kids from the Tropicana program (all of them from different schools). They all enjoyed their trip getting to know the kids from Calgary while enjoying the sights and sounds of their city. They did such various activities such as visiting historical sites, seeing their chinatown, and of course, going to their malls. (LOL) In the end, the trip was enjoyable for everyone in both the Tropicana and Calgary groups. Next year, we hope to get more people involved from our school with the YMCA program.

Overall, this was another sucessfull year with Tropicana and I hope to have another fun filled year with Tropicana.
