“I wanted to make sure the program continued … other than hockey and skating there wasn’t much to do in Gillam,” says Reibin, who took youth on a snowmobile trip to Churchill after developing their skills over three years to prepare them to camp in the harsh winter weather. “My hope is that later in life, these kids will look back at what I did with them and they will volunteer in some capacity as well,” said Reibin, who works full-time for Manitoba Hydro. “I’m only able to commit the time and energy that I do because of the support for the program by the Canadian Armed Forces, my employer and most of all my family and friends that aid me in providing the program.”
