BC River Days In Enderby


The drummer singing river chants
A big thank you to all the wonderful people who worked at making BC River Days in Enderby a success. Last year I was busy photographing the lanterns and didn't get  to launch my lantern. Cathy Stubington stored about 70 lanterns from the year before and as I was walking around last night I found my lantern from last year and was able to launch it into the river. I loved the drumming and chanting, I had to sing along. It was a happy event with kids laughing and young people on stilts in bird costumes. It wasn't raining.

The precision to the river to launch the lanterns
