There are few people that we have the privledge to meet during our lives that leave you with a smile and a warmth that follows you each day. Alana was one of these people. She had the uncanny ability to remember the smallest details that remind you that there are people that truly care and have a passion about life that you can really call a friend.

Our sincerist condolences to her family, friends and co-workers.

Alana, you will be missed by many. RIP friend.

Since myself and my friends are regulars at Zalas, we have head the pleasure of meeting Alana and experiencing her warmth, her smile, her caring nature, and her humor. She remembered our names and always stopped to talk even if we were not her table. On the day of the accident I left the mountain early with one of my friends and the other 2 of our group stayed on, and they where present shortly after the accident and performed life saving measures to attempt to resuscitate her. It was very shocking and emotional for them both once they realized who it was. I offer my prayers and condolensces to her family, her friends, and her boyfriend who was present at the scene. She will be missed by many.

Please pass on a big thank you to your friends for me, I did not get a chance to thank everyone who helped out at the time, cant remember the names of those present with me at Alanas side.
I take this opportunity now to say a big THANK YOU to all that helped out and was there with me.

Hi Val, p.m.`d you my #, talked to Arlene last night after the meeting.
The plan is to all meet and ride up at 7 p.m. We will travel together as a group as there will be first time riders with us. We`ll take the Kirkup trail to the cabin. Burgers, dogs, coffee and hot chocolate will be provided by family and friends.
The family is asking that everyone bring some fireworks.

Pretty sure Mark is donating some sleds for the evening.
Tough to find fireworks around these parts, new bylaw passed. I did find some for our New Years deal at the market by the Burner at Malkwa only place from here to Sorrento that did. Sounds like we will have a great turn out.

calgary area riders, the store across from our shop has fireworks, and i'll see if he can rush more in for next week. they have connections in the film industry for the bad boys. i'll try, and help out as much from this end, and will have room in the trailer for that week-end, if anyone needs a lift out.

Any Calgary area riders going to this event can PM me as well, I have some that someone can pick up if they are going.
