G.A.P Open House / Client Appreciation Day
Time: 3-7 pm
Come on down to the G.A.P Concept Store here in Kensington and join Felicity, Michael and Ned for an afternoon of holiday cheer. It's our turn to thank you for your business and continued support and we'd love to see you stop by for a cup of hot chocolate or cider and some oh-so-yummy holiday goodies and a cupcake or two!
It's a casual atmosphere planned for the afternoon, we've got our 2009 brochures in store and would love to share some of our new and exciting trips with you. Or stop by and tell us all about your recent holidays, show us photos or swap travel stories from years gone by. As 2008 winds down and we have time to reflect and think about what's important, we just want all of our clients to know how much we appreciate you, and we look forward to seeing you all in person.
RSVP so we know how many goodies to get - otherwise we'll have to eat them all by ourselves (not that we'd really mind!)
Happy Holidays Everyone!

Felicity Lyons - Concept Store Manager
Leaving behind the beautiful beaches and lifestyle back home in OZ, Felicity's a victim of the travel bug!! She made her way over to Canada where she's been traveling for almost a year and has now settled in Calgary.
Our Concept Store is so lucky to have her join our team! With loads of travel experience in over twenty countries, spanning from all over South and Central America, Asia, and Europe, Felicity is very knowledgeable and a real pleasure to book with! She believes in authentic travel: getting into the real communities and seeing "home" through the eyes of the locals.
"Volunteer; meet the real people, experience the real culture and make yourself smile"

Michael Kappel - Adventure Specialist
I left the flat planes of Eastern Canada to settle down in Calgary – where I wake up seeing the Rockies jet out of the horizon! There are two things that I love more than anything else: Adventure Travel and Mountain Climbing! (Easily combined may I add!) I am a member of the Alpine Club of Canada and spend much of my time mountaineering, rock climbing in our beautiful Rockies.
Although I was born in Calgary, I was raised in Czech Republic after the fall of the Communist Red Curtain in 1990. It has shaped my personality and grew my love of exploring unique cultures, places and times in our history. Since than I have traveled to many parts of Eastern Europe, Turkey, Costa Rica, Venezuela, Croatia .... and am a proud owner of a travel wish list that stretches down Kensington Avenue and all the way to 14th St!!!!!
I have worked in the travel industry for 7 years now and feel extremely fortunate to be a part of G.A.P. Adventures where I can help likeminded people plan their dream trips all around the world!!!
