Tentative travel plans
We were all saddened by the loss of Tyler Ketchum in March 2011 to brain cancer. Tyler was
the 24 year old son of one of our beloved hosts in Winnipeg, Vivian Ketchum. Tyler's circle of influence included his many
friends in Winnipeg, as well as relatives on his home reserve in Kenora. Out of respect for the distance and effort many people
travelled to support Tyler and family during this difficult time, we will be driving and camping.
We can take a maximum
of 9 youth, plus driver/leaders & camping gear. Participants and parents are interviewed to make sure all understand
parameters of the trip, then determined on a first confirm, first serve basis.
Participants must: help with fundraising,
assist with local outreach projects, and must be know to demonstrate high levels of responsibility and accountability. | |
