Dear David:


Today from XAM-IIIPM is the Spring Market or Markt at The Dutch Canadian Centre, which is located at the Peter Lougheed Multicultural Village, just off St. Albert Trail. My father is an immigrant from the Netherlands, as is his girlfriend & they were there working a couple of booths as volunteers. There was food galore, music, Dutchies Wutchies in conversation. Beverages & apperitifs were proffered, as well as games IV the Kinderen (children) plus face painting. A great time was had by all. People such as I who knows about how great the Dutch people are were & are really proud II attend this event. I encourage family's with a Dutch heritage II join Dutch Club's in their local community. Students who want to learn about multiculturalism in Canada can learn a lot by participating in Club events. People from other races, religions, & cultures are also welcome. The Dutch like to socialize & this Market is a great networking opportunity IV family's!


Friesland Boppe,


Rory
