Clara Hughes!

 We are so lucky to have the field and former community centre by our place to be re-named after 
The Greatest Female Olympian of all time, Clara Hughes!
Clara participated in six different Olympic games (summer AND winter) 
and brought with her the six medals she earned.  She grew up 
in our neighbourhood and played softball, ringette and soccer at this site.

 She was such a great sport and let the kids try on her medals!

 Wyatt didn't want anything to do with Olympic gold!

 The medals were heavy! Natalee actually dropped this one and Clara was quick so say, "That's o.k.!"



 Caleb has been dreaming about participating in and winning an Olympic medal for a while now.

Clara and her Mom.
