'10-Mar-16 -- 00 -- Press Release Educational! Entertaining! as well as a Memorable Occasion! Adult Ukrainian Language Immersion Course 2009 August 24, 2009 (Regina, SK) August 13 to 16, 2009 was the ninth anniversary of the Adult Ukrainian Language Immersion Course (AULIC) held at Trident Camp at Crystal Lake, Saskatchewan. It was a great opportunity for the participants to improve their Ukrainian grammar and have a great time polishing their language skills plus learning many traditional Ukrainian folk songs and traditions. Enrollment numbered 25 this year. They came from across Western Canada plus a family from New York. Half of the participants attended AULIC for the first time and the remaining at least twice, some of which have been to AULIC every year since its inception! Many of the new participants learned of the project through AULIC's web site www.aulic.ca The AULIC program offered three levels (Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced) of Ukrainian language instruction throughout the weekend. Instructors this year included Anita Drebot of Regina, a Ukrainian language teacher for many years; and native Ukrainians: Oksana Sholdra of Regina, trained in Ukraine and a Sadochok teacher and choreographer in Regina, and Olena Shyian another teacher recently from Ukraine and presently working in Regina. Evenings were spent singing, dancing, watching Ukrainian videos and participating in Ukrainian cultural activities. Anita Drebot instructed participants on Ukrainian embroidery while Sharon Harras demonstrated the finer points of Easter Egg decorating. Many participants also enjoyed a trip to the Ukrainian Heritage Museum in Canora. On Saturday night, special guests from Canora, Yorkton and area were invited to AULIC to enjoy the Shynka Restaurant Program. After dining on a delicious meal, the guests witnessed the many talents of the instructors and participants throughout the evening as they sang songs, performed skits, and danced. AULIC 2009's Organizing Committee consisted of Tony Harras, Wayne Hydeman, Ed Lysyk and Ken Mazur. This year's modest early registration fee was $185 for the four-day weekend.
