If you were at the Abbotsford campus bookstore on Tuesday November 8, you may have stumbled upon the store’s Student Appreciation Day. Events and draws took place all day with hourly small prizes and a large draw for some more noteworthy prizes. Items won include a 32GB iPad 2 with Wi-Fi and accessories (won by Amanda Paulton), a pair of Whistler/Blackcomb lift tickets (won by Sheena Edwards and Tim Edtoda) and Canucks tickets (won by Renan Vaz). Several vendors were at the appreciation day, including Coca-Cola—who gave away free drinks—as well as Apple and The Globe and Mail. “We do this to show appreciation to the students who are working hard all semester” said bookstore manager Cameron Roy, “it gives them a chance to save money as well as check out what we have in the store.”
