What an exciting summer it has been! Cassandra has spent some time up at Mariposa in Barrie and loved every minute of it! She has already asked if she can skate there longer next summer. Her always amazing head coach, Amanda M. (who really should have her picture posted here because we love her dearly), really saw a difference in Cassandra’s skill level and Cassandra gained alot of confidence this summer too. I wonder if it has anything to do with her 2 favorite guys being so wonderful to her?
Her jump coach from Bradford and Barrie, Olympic and World contender, Ben Ferriera. And her inspiration, Olympic Medalist, Jeff Buttle who she watched skate every day she was there and who came off the ice always smiling and talking to her. He has a fabulous personality and a great Mom too!
Her Mariposa summer was capped off when I surprised her with tickets to the Mariposa Charity Gala! It was an amazing show that she loved and a great date night out for us!
Overall, her Mariposa experience has been so positive! She can’t wait to return next summer!
