One of the many ways Calm Air enjoys giving back is to host a Christmas Feast for the children and elders in a selected community where we fly. We host a complete turkey dinner with all the traditional sides one wants to eat during the holiday season. This year, the blizzards were cold but our hearts were warm as we planned dinners for both Naujaat and Whale Cove.
Here are a few images from our Christmas Dinner at the Naujaat Elementary School on November 24, 2017.

We are excited to be back in Naujaat on December 1, to host the students of Tuugaalik High School and will be sharing more pictures from the dinner once they are available.
We would like to send a very special thanks to the principals and teachers who volunteered their hearts and hands to make each of these events possible. We could not do it without you.
Tusarvik Elementary School – Bonnie Russell
Tuugaalik High School – Aubrey Bolt and Julia MacPherson
Inuglak School – Claude Pike
As well, special thanks to the local RCMP officers who helped to plate meals in Naujaat. And thanks to Arctic Coop for their involvement.
The weather may have caused some delays but we are looking forward to visiting Whale Cove later this month.
