Vancouver, Canada - This Saturday, February 14th, the Bahamas’ first-ever potential Winter Olympian, Korath Wright will be competing at the World Cup Snowboard event at Cypress Mountain...yep, that’s right, a snowboarder from the Bahamas!

We have FOUND and HIRED our 15 or so engaging, different and exciting team members to cheer on Korath (the athlete) and to let the rest of the world know that this is a truly historic moment...and at the end of the day, “IT’S BETTER IN THE BAHAMAS”

If you still wish to inform Korath's cheering team that you are a Bahamian living in the Vancouver area and want to submit your name for future events, please continue reading.

 

If you’re still interested in helping spread the love (it is Valentine’s Day after all!), please come up to the mountain and cheer on Korath.  Please email us your name, age, also include a photo, and your t-shirt. We are looking for as many Bahamian/Caribbean people as possible.

Please send an email to bedifferent@bscene.ca to be added for future events. No phone calls please.
