Donate and Win!!

16/9/2019

 
We know, by the visits we get here and elsewhere, that many of you love trails. Yup, you do! Even if you’re not frequently using the trails, it looks like you simply love the idea of those trails being there, waiting, for when you’re ready to strap on your hiking boots. Which is why we want to make sure the trails are ready for that moment. Which is why we need your support! And because we and our community hold that support in such high regard, we’re able to offer up some pretty special gifts for our June ‘Our Stories, Our Trails’ Fundraising Campaign raffle…

Picture
Kerry is one of those people who has fabricated a life for herself that has work and play co-existing in a beautiful symbiotic balance. She and her partner have lived in the Wakefield area for a number of years – their home nestled between the Gatineau River and the surrounding hills. Kerry is an instructional designer, and mostly works from home, which works perfectly well for her, as she finds her best thinking is done out in nature – either on the river or on the trails.

Nick Appleby, Constructeur de ponts

24/6/2019

 
Picture
Not that we’re giving his age away, but Nick remembers the days of his youth when there were no computers, and kids like him mostly spent all of their time outdoors. He still makes a point of getting out into the forest – both on and off the trails. Which might be the reason why he joined the SWT team a few years back. Since then, Nick has been a very valuable contributor to the group.
