This week we spoke with:

ESG Registrar, Melody Owen

How long have you been involved in ESG?

  • This is my 11th year with ESG

What is your favourite Guild Fridays snack?

  • I have to say my favourite food situation is the pancake breakfast during performance Sundays.

What is your favourite part of ESG?

  • My favourite part of ESG is watching participants relate to each other and grow in their awareness of others in the community and their connection to their spiritual selves. I also enjoy how I’ve been around long enough to watch a number of children from their first grade two year to graduation.

If you could send Jeqn on a vacation anywhere in the world, where would you send her and which fictional character would you send with her?

  • I don’t want to send Jeqn on vacation. I want to send me on vacation. If Jeqn went on Vacation she would go to Costa Rica because I know she wants to go there and she’d take me with her!
