For the first time, the Canadian Society organized the first annual pancake and skate event where both members, friends and the public can enjoy free pancake and as well have the chance to taste coffee from Canada's national chain - Tim Hortons. 

The event was open to public and members received a special discount of only paying 250NT for skate and protection gear rental.

Approximately over 150 pancakes were served and countless cups of fresh coffee were given out with the special Canadian touch and taste. Pancake and coffee, to be surprised or not, were one of the main attraction of the event. 

Most people had not skated for a long time and had taken sometimes to get a feel of what is skating like. Some of us have learned skating in a community outdoor rink where people skates and play hockey.  Thanks to the collaboration with the Hockey League in Taiwan, attendees had a chance to learn how to shoot a pock against a real equipped goalie.
