Behind the Scenes

This year, just like any other, the Moose Media and Energeticcity.ca team have been out and about enjoying the summer in our community. As the season draws to a close, we wanted to share some pictures of us from the last few months.

Here we are tasting the offering at Ribfest, joining the crowds at the Energetic County Fair stage, tired but at the finish line of the Emperor’s Challenge and with the winning cup at Chances Casino’s Jackpot Trivia. The bottom right image also shows Ed Hitchins, Indigenous Voices reporter, joining the procession at the grand opening of this year’s Spirit of the Peace Pow Wow.  

And let’s not forget an incredible Moose FM Block Party last weekend, presented by Moose Media and RE/MAX. Thank you to everyone who came out for a fantastic event, we had a blast! Here’s a picture of DJ Moose meeting Fort St. John firefighters, below. If you’re on TikTok, you can see the highlights of an Energeticcity.ca cornhole showdown at the Block Party here.
