The Town of Happy Valley - Goose Bay has made
great efforts to ensure positive relations between the community and our
participants. In 2000 the Goose Bay Airport Marketing Committee created
Allied Appreciation Week to express its appreciation to those air forces
conducting training at our Base. During the week of celebrations
participants receive discounts at local businesses and take part in (amoung
other things) an allied/local soccer (football) game. We have an ongoing
commitment to foster positive relationships between the community and
our participants.
Current and former personnel from participant
nations who have spent time in Goose Bay agree that the quality of
training and life here is like none other. With miles of rugged country
in every direction, Goose Bay truly is a nature enthusiasts paradise.
Participants training in Goose Bay have embraced our natural landscape
and unique way of life, and frequently organize camping outings for
their staff. Additionally, a number of participants have devoted
considerable resources to develop cottages and other infrastructure to
facilitate social outings.
While training may be your priority, the
possibilities for comfort, fun, and relaxation are endless. It’s all
right here in Goose Bay, Labrador.
