Led by accomplished dancer and entrepreneur Buffy Handel, the school is renowned for its energetic choreography that resonates with audiences of all ages and backgrounds. Emphasizing traditional values of integrity, respect, and community, the Aboriginal School of Dance offers training for young performers, instilling in them the skills needed for independence in the industry. Through their high-quality artistic presentations and educational initiatives, the school aims to honor and preserve the cultural heritage of Canada's first peoples while also engaging non-aboriginal students in learning about indigenous traditions.

The Manitoba Forestry Association (MFA) has entered a period of hibernation while undertaking initiatives that align with its mission, including the establishment of Manitoba's Covid Memorial Forest, which honors each life lost to the pandemic with the planting of a seedling. Additionally, the MFA has transitioned significant assets such as the Tree Planting Car to the Manitoba Agricultural Museum to continue its legacy of educating the public about the benefits of tree planting. The organization has also passed its flagship educational program, the Manitoba Envirothon, to the Manitoba Association of Watersheds, ensuring its continued impact on environmental education. As they look toward the future, the MFA remains committed to promoting sustainable forestry practices and raising awareness about the importance of conservation across the province.
