- How long have you lived in Parkdale?
- We have lived in Parkdale for 2.5 years or as we refer to it in our house 2 full hockey seasons. I was asked to join the board shortly after moving in.
- How long have you been a part of the Board?
- 2 years
- What is the best part of being on the board and volunteering?
- My favourite part of being in Parkdale and being a member of the board are the late nights at the rink. After dinner, I bring my oldest son back to the rink. While I stretch out the hoses out and begin to flood one end, I watch him playing by himself at the other end, under the lights, trying new moves and winning the Stanley 100 times a night. Makes it all worth it.
- Any fun tid bit about you that people would find interesting & engaging.
- Born and raised in Denver, CO. I officiated 11 years of professional hockey and played in 17 professional golf tournaments. I had no idea how satisfying it could be to watch water freeze, its very peaceful, I truly enjoy it.
