Merry Christmas From The GCSU Backlot

 On behalf of the staff of the GCSU Backlot, and the executive, councillors and staff of the Grenfell College Student Union, we would like to wish everyone a very safe and happy holiday season. 2009 has been a very successful year for the GCSU Backlot, and this would not happen without the support of the Grenfell College community.

2010 is also shaping up to be another banner year. The GCSU Backlot will be home to some of the biggest pop culture events of the year, including Super Bowl XLIV, Wrestlemania XXVI, and the XXI Olympic Games from Vancouver. We will also be home to some of the greatest live entertainment in Atlantic Canada, including shows by the Tom Fun Orchestra and the The Funk Show, as well as the 6th Annual Unplugged for Cancer in March. Stayed tuned to thebacklot.ca for more info on these upcoming events.

Once again, Merry Christmas to all, and we hope to see you all again in the new year!
