The Taproot
West Wind’s Epic Corporate Camp-Out!
Galiano Island, Montague Harbour
Every year we brave the weather (however wet it may be) and spend two glorious days camping, boating, fishing, relaxing & eating… Good times were had and oh boy were we well fed!
One of the many highlights was playing the ancient Viking game “Kubb” with wood blocks and dowels. All we can say it was super fun and there could be a “West Wind” version in the future or better yet: the West Wind Championship Team (yeah we we’re that good!), Sweden here we come!
