The Manitoba Summer Games, powered by Manitoba Hydro, came to a close on the weekend with the closing ceremonies at Credit Union Place.
CKDM News Now spoke to a few of the athletes after the ceremonies to get their thoughts on the week long event.
\Maury represented the Winnipeg Gold region in sailing.
"I thought it went really well. It was quite energetic with lots of things going on and lots of events and lots of fun overall."
Rylan and Gianpaolo were both part of the men's soccer team for the South region.
"I think it was fun." said Rylan, while Gianpaolo added "I think it was a good experience."
"My favourite memory was probably the cafeteria. It was really nice getting to thank all of the volunteers and have the lovely food that fuelled me up for my sport." added Maury.
And Aubrey and Jennica represented the North region in girls basketball.
"The games were really awesome.." said Aubrey. "There were so many new people to meet and the people that helped out were also awesome."
"The competitive and intensity on the court was awesome." added Jennica. "I loved every second of it. To see how the athletes worked so hard to come here and participate was great to see it all (come) together. "
The next edition of the Manitoba Games will take place in March of 2026, as Thompson will host the winter edition.
