    Re-connecting to the natural world has been a primary focus for GW and his family and HAW aligns with that more than any child care/education facility that they have seen.

    GW was born and raised in Midland, ON. He has been employed as a golf professional at the Georgian Bay Club for the past 14 years. He grew up playing all sports including hockey, golf, basketball, volleyball, and lacrosse. Currently, he is most interested in learning about how best to interact with the natural world and how to best share that space with all of nature.

    Jess has lived in the grey highlands area for 10 years and loves having so many outdoor activities nearby and places to explore. She grew up helping her family organize road running events that raised money for various charities throughout Halton. Some notable events were the Chilly Half Marathon that focused on raising money for a beast coil for the Hamilton General hospital as well as raising funds to support the new ward at Joe brant hospital in Burlington. Jess now works for an athletic company based out of Boston and is lucky enough to work for an organization that has a foundation that values promoting healthy lifestyles and ensuring kids have access to sport through many different fundraising initiatives around the world. Jess looks forward to raising her two girls to enjoy and respect nature and give them as many opportunities as possible to be outdoors exploring.
