Meet The Board

Roger is no stranger to Camp Ta-Wa-Si. He has been a camper, a counselor, and a member of the Board of Directors on what is now his third stint. During his times on the camp Board, he has served as Vice-Chair, Personnel Chair, and now is thrilled to have the role of Chair. In earlier years, he was very lucky to also experience camp from activities as a cub, a scout, a Hi-C youth group member, and as a Sunday schooler.

Beyond the actual camp experiences, Roger brings a variety of relevant professional experiences to the camp Board. He recently retired from his roleas Dean of Professional Programs (Education & Organizational Management) at Crandall University. He continues to teach a graduate level course “Managing Organizations across Borders & Cultures”. In earlier years, he earned a B.Sc. (Agricultural Economics & Rural Development) , an M.B.A (Management) and a Ph.D (Business). Roger is proud to have lived and worked in 5 Canadian provinces. A career highlight was the two years with his family in Indonesia working as the Country Director for the Canadian Co-operative Association.
It is no big surprise that Roger’s family have all been engaged in camp as well. This includes Catherine, his wife of 40 years, their 2 daughters, Catrina & Allison, and all 4 grandsons: Lukas,Matas, Jake, and Rory.

Rainy is from Port Elgin NB, but was recently living in St. John’s, Newfoundland! She has moved back home from NFLD and has become a volunteer firefighter in Port Elgin. She takes pride in safety, community outreach, and teamwork.

I grew up at Camp Ta-Wa-Si having been a camper for 9 years, a CIT for 2 years, on staff for 5 years and now volunteering on and off the Board of Directors for 14 years. I love seeing new faces experience the same joy I felt as a kid. Watching my own children make camp memories has been the most amazing feeling.

While I bring a lot of relevant experience to my positions on the Board, I really believe I gained a lot of relevant experience while being involved with camp. I became a leader, gained interpersonal skills as well as independence while working at camp.

When I am not volunteering for camp, I own and operate Russell Chiropractic & Family Wellness and Milo's Pet Shop in Sackville NB, volunteer as Treasurer for the Sackville BIA, and raise my twin boys alongside my husband.
