Tagish Community Newsletter March 2023

Dear Tagish !

This month, MartinAllen, your TCA President is joining me for this message. We must talk about theAnnual Poker Run. Due to paperwork matter and miscommunication we have to cancel it BUT the team is inviting you for a Tagish Fun Run!

Sunday March 5th between 11 am and 5 pm the 65 km trail loop will be marked from The Tagish Community Centre to the Southern Lake Resort and back.

We had bunch of new snow in the last few days, the trail conditions will be amazing.

Let’s go play outside while we still can! We hope to see you then!

We would like to thank you our precious volunteers that are making this annual activity happen.

TheAnnual Tagish Poker Run will be back next year. Please look at the front page for more details.
