TESTIMONIAL:

Dawn was a guest speaker at the OASIS Alternative School in Orillia, ON, (2009) where she encountered a difficult audience to win over. Win them over she did! The students were enthralled with her stories and asked many relevant questions, particularly regarding cultural differences. It was a whole new world to them. The entire experience was very educational and entertaining.

I want to thank you again for coming and speaking about your experiences in the Arctic. It was a wonderful presentation and I enjoyed it so much, as did everyone else.

I think that your presentation gave the residents a valuable learning opportunity which is often not thought of, or provided within senior care settings. You really help us provide lifelong learning for the residents here and those in attendance enjoyed themselves very much!
