I was fortunate to take part in a Cosmetology Apprenticeship back in 2007. We briefly touched on Esthetics during this program and it immediately drew me in. After a quick trip to Toronto to meet an Aveda salon owner and talk shop, I was eager to train with Aveda and hooked on the idea of finding my own spot in this amazing industry.

When I have the opportunity to travel, especially some place unique and special, I make sure to find something meaningful that will help me to remember the moments and memories created and shared. A keepsake, whatever the size or type, can be cherished for years and also can help us to tell our stories. Here are just a few items out there to consider, but we know you’ll find what’s just right for you!

The 2022 Fernie Business Excellence Awards were held Friday night at a special awards gala at the Rusty Edge attended by over 100 people from the Fernie business community. Trophies were given out over twelve categories in a fun-filled night that was the first awards gala to return to a pre-pandemic format.
