Meet Nathan Blake from Alaska. He’s the ultimate hype-man at these Arctic Winter Games. Soaking up this experience and literally cheering on every participant along the way and making friends as he goes. @cbcsports

HOCKEY 🏒 COMMUNITY NWT’s Bradley Bartlett arrived at the Arctic Winter Games but his hockey equipment didn’t. That’s when the Fort McMurray hockey community came to the rescue. A feel-good story that captures the spirit of these Games. @cbcsports @hockeynight

Look at this Dene snowsnake throw! Yukon’s Troy Johns throws it 222 feet on his final attempt. He’s got the farthest throw today in junior men’s category.

As we continue to have conversations about creating healthy, safe environments for athletes in the country I’m struck by something here at the Arctic Games. This is about the joy of sport here. Community. Personal growth. What sport is truly about. Memories to last a lifetime.

ARCTIC GAMES SISTERHOOD Sometimes the story writes itself. Like today. When longtime Games champion Veronica McDonald met her student in the final of the women’s two-foot high kick. And when they finished, they cried and celebrated together. @cbcsports was there to capture it

The slogan: Time to Shine. If tonight is any indication, they are ready to do just that. After five years of waiting the 2023 Arctic Winter Games are officially underway in Wood Buffalo.

That’s a wrap up on the Arctic Games Opening Ceremony. A brilliant array of fireworks light up the Wood Buffalo night sky. Sporting action hits high gear tomorrow. Going to thaw out.

Before they took the stage @atribecalledred promised to keep the athletes warm with their music. They lived up to their promise. Team Yukon soaking up the vibes as the Opening Ceremony winds down on a chilly night in Wood Buffalo.

Meet Nitotem the Lynx, the official mascot for the Wood Buffalo 2023 Arctic Winter Games. Nitotem was born just north of Fort Chipewyan in the Wood Buffalo National Park. The other animals in the boreal forest gave him his name, which means “my friend” in the Cree language.

Table tennis is a part of the Arctic Winter Games. Practices underway ahead of official competition. Getting a tour of the MacDonald Island complex. An absolutely brilliant facility that will house many of the events throughout.

Now learning the Arctic Games torch will be brought into the opening ceremony venue on a dog sled this evening. That will lead to the official lighting of the cauldron to begin the Games. You can watch it all on @cbcsports starting at 7pm MT
