OWC Winter Festival 2025

Organized by the SHCS Outstanding Workplace Committee (OWC), the event took place at Thunderbird Arena in the Doug Mitchell Thunderbird Sports Centre.

More than 200 SHCS Vancouver employees had fun skating, playing a range of games, from corn hole to giant Connect Four. Plus, attendees enjoyed delicious charcuterie platters, mac and cheese, freshly toasted s’mores, hot chocolate and cookies.

Thank you to the volunteers!

Thanks to the OWC members who helped organize and staff the event, plus additional colleagues from across SHCS who also helped out before, during and after the event, including setup and teardown. A big shoutout, in particular, to our chefs (Andy, David, Eric, and Jeremy)!
