Kids took in an interactive presentation by La Grande Traversée during a pancake breakfast to welcome the group.
La Grande Traversée was also kicking off the Saskatchewan-leg of the relay cycling adventure. The entire tour started in Victoria, B.C. on April 29 and wraps up in P.E.I. on June 16.
“This is not all athletes. This is to promote healthy lifestyle, physical activity,” said Emilie Bureau, general coordinator of La Grande Traversée, a Vancouver- based organization.
