At
work we have had the pleasure to get to know this wonderful and high-spirited lady
who dedicates a lot of her time towards our music festival organization. If we
need something to get done, we know that we can always rely on her to get it done quickly
and with extreme precision. On top of being our right arm for all of our events,
her marvelous personality and sharp humour always makes her a very pleasant person
to be around.
A
few months ago, we found out that she was to undergo a serious surgery in February,
which would confine her to a bed for several months. The team agreed that
sending her a care package to which we would all contribute would be a nice
gesture to do to let her know that we are thinking about her. As she had made a
homemade card and baked goodies for us for Christmas, I thought that it was appropriate
for me to make a card for her in return. I decided to have fun with it and try
something new. I had never done watercolour before and thanks to my wonderful
roommate who had the patience to guide me through the process, I was able to
come up with a somewhat decent design. The bike symbolizes not only her love of
cycling, but also the determination and strength (both essential when biking) that
will help her get back on the road to recovery.

Again,
by being involved with Katimavik in the past, I can fully understand the
positive impact of volunteer work in the community. It’s important to underline
the work that volunteers do and make them realize that what they accomplish
does not go unnoticed as they are often the backbone of organizations,
especially for music festivals. So making this card was the least I could do to
thank her for her help.
