Capilano Suspension Bridge Park’s Summer Season Soiree, an annual end-of-summer team member event, took place at Stanley Park Pavilion on the evening of Aug. 30.
For the first year, the Capilano Group’s three Vancouver teams celebrated together (Capilano Suspension Bridge Park, Stanley Park Pavilion and Prospect Point), according to a written statement from the organization.
Staff enjoyed mingling, dining under the stars and playing Giant Jenga on the outdoor deck overlooking Stanley Park.
The formalities included a big thank you to everyone from CEO Nancy Stibbard, and the presentation of 11 Cap Groupie Awards, seven $1,000 academic scholarships and the singular Capilanitude Award.
Capilano Scholarships were awarded to Capilano’s Derek Maroney, Clarice Scop, Jessica Ellis, Michael Beck, Tania Talebzadeh, Linden Maultsaid-Blair and Stanley Park Pavilion’s Tiago Cruz. All recipients demonstrated that their commitment to academics was no less than to their community and to the Capilano Group.
Capilano Suspension Bridge Park alone employs 260 team members during peak season.
The three Vancouver Capilano Group teams consist of more than 355 team members. capbridge.com
