Co-Chairs Look Back On 2018 Manitoba Winter Games

It’s now almost two months since the 2018 Manitoba Winter Games came to a close.

 

Speaking to Arctic Radio News, Games’ co-chair Sandra Ross-Hitch said that both her and  Murray Kissick were always ready to respond to a problem, but never had to. Ross-Hitch said that they were always waiting "for the other shoe to drop", but it didn't happen.

 

She added that having that the right people in the right positions meant that even if something did go wrong, it was dealt with before Kissick and herself had to get involved.

 

Kissick, who co-chaired the Games with Ross-Hitch, said that the organizers would not have done anything differently had they, as a Host Society, been given the normal two-year planning period. He added that he and the rest of the organizing committee feel that an 18-month time frame for planning the Manitoba Games is more appropriate.

 

Part one of the two part interview with the co-chairs will air on 102.9 CHTM tomorrow afternoon at 12:40pm and 5:10pm. The second half of the interview will air Wednesday again at 12:40pm and 5:10pm.
