Bonjour!
My name is Kyle and I am the Impact Tours 'Ground Rep' in Quebec City. This is my first post from beautiful QC, and I was thinking, what better event to highlight on my maiden post then one of our group's adventures to the L'Erabliere Du Cap Sugar Shack!

Tonight the students began with a wagon ride through the woods, and saw with their very own eyes, where Canada's most famous liquid MAPLE SYRUP comes from!... Afterwards, they headed inside the building where they actually process the maple sap into maple sugar, to get a little lesson. Following lots of talk of maple sugar and sugary foods, they made their way inside to the cabane to wolf down their traditional Quebecois meal, which included... Yes, you guessed it! Loads of maple syrup!

Quickly following their introduction to an 'old time' Quebecois meal, they were whisked off to the dance floor to join "Tour guide Rob" in some good ol' fashioned folk dancing! Rob needed no help getting the students to hit the dance floor, as some of them jumped up even before their desert arrived! To finish off their fantastic night, they returned outside to cool down from all the dancing and yes, once again, had more sugar, when a taffy pull was waiting for them outside! All in all, it was a fantastic night that these students will likely remember for a long time!

à la prochaine!

WELCOME!

Jason (Toronto Office)

I'd like to introduce you, our readers, to this exciting new way to keep up with what's happening with our tours in Canada this year. We have a dedicated rep in Ottawa who will be helping our destination staff keep up with all of the tour groups there. It's going to be an exciting season, and we look forward to sharing our travels with you!

From time to time you'll be hearing from our other staff in Montreal, Quebec City, and perhaps further afield as they report on the amazing experiences our groups are having as they travel, learn, and experience on an Impact tour!
