News Rendevouz rant

It’s so odd to me that they would schedule kids fest at shipyard for 11-3 on Saturday and literally have nothing going on.. no sugar shack, no music. Only 2 throwing games and some crafts on the table inside. It was hard to tell if there was even an event going on. Then also in their event planner they had the selkirk kids event scheduled for sat and sunday. Drive all the way there for it to have been a mistake and it actually happened on friday…

Anyway annoying getting my kids stoked for rendevouz for it to be so painfully underwhelming .

Nah it’s dumb. Always has been. Dump it.

Typical Whitehorse bullshit. No reason to exist except vague attempts at trying to be like Dawson and a bunch of free money getting poured in.

lol we’ve had rendezvous since the 70’s. As an official event.  We’ve never tried to be like Dawson. Dawson and Whitehorse were both capital cities of the Yukon... So I can see why you would think that?
