Reconnect! Rejuvenate!

Welcome to our two day event!

Alhough we cannot be together in person this year, we look forward to being together online.  We bring to you what we hope will be engaging and inspiring speakers and sessions. Many thanks to our guests and our staff who have generously agreed to share their knowledge and experience with us.

Feedback on the sessions is appreciated, but a reminder to be respectful to those who have offered their time to be with us.

Ted Nolan always says, “Hockey is what I do, it is not who I am”.  Ted is so grateful for the opportunities hockey has created in his life, and most importantly, the opportunity it has created for him to become a positive role model and inspiration for First Nations people all across Canada.  With his wife Sandra and two sons Brandon and Jordan, he dreams of Indigenous self-sufficiency and a day when First Nations will take their rightful place in Canada.

 Join us as we welcome Ted Nolan to tell his story of perseverance and dedication to Indigenous youth.
