Letter: A big ‘thank you’ to ‘Ben’ at NLFB

A kind man running a kiosk at the Bell Park festival helped an elderly resident

People recline in the sun at Northern Lights Festival Boréal 2023 to watch performers on the CBC acoustic stage.

I would like to bring attention to a young man who had a kiosk at Festival Boréal (Northern Lights Festival Boréal, which occurred in Bell Park July 6-9).  

He offered to lend me his own chairs when I told him I was in my eighties, and that the heat was getting to us. Ben treated us with kindness and respect.  

I think he is due a big “thank you” and an “attaboy.”

Wish there were more Bens.
