                                                 Updates and Important Information

1) BCP Athletic Shirts and Apparel: Students/Parents/Guardians can now order Baccalieu Predators Athletics shirts through In the Box NL online store. The clothing options include: dri-fit short sleeve, dri-fit long sleeve, crew neck sweatshirt, and hooded sweatshirt all in grey or navy blue. NOTE: For some sports teams you will be asked to order a shirt with a number to be used as a jersey, this will be at the direct instruction of your coach. Do not order a shirt with a number without consulting directly with your coach. BCP Athletic shirts are a quality low cost option for short term sports teams.

2) Vet Camp Opportunity: My name is Michelle Hooper, and I’m one of the organizers here at the Atlantic Veterinary College for our annual Vet Camps, happening this summer for Jr. High & High School students. Applications for vet camp have opened this week, and we are wanting to share the opportunity throughout Newfoundland and Labrador as well. I have attached a poster that can be emailed, or easily printed, as well as bursary information for students looking to have camp expenses covered. Michelle Hooper -- External Engagement Assistant -- Atlantic Veterinary College | University of Prince Edward Island -- michellehooper@upei.ca -- 902-566-0589
