Program
Director - Dan Woima |
Dan facilitates the success of each adventurer and
tour. Dan is a true sports enthusiast, equally at
home ripping down the slopes on his skis or board,
hiking and climbing in the mountains, challenging
the fairways on the golf course or facing opponents
on the hockey rink. A native Calgarian, Dan decided
to broaden his horizons, first living in Bermuda for
four years, and then undertaking a world tour spanning
five continents. Dan's values are strongly rooted
in family, friends and life balance. Ever seeking
adventure, he is a strong advocate of continual enrichment
through active life experience. Dan seeks to pass
his love for travel on to the youth of today, allowing
them the opportunity to discover the world and learn
more about themselves along the way. |

Operations
Manager - Kim Woima |
From a small town in Saskatchewan, Kim's family
introduced her to the joys of traveling at an early
age. Whether camping with her parents as a child,
driving to California as a teenager, or joining her
grandparents and cousins on their cross-Canada journey,
she quickly realized the world is a big place with
much to discover. So it only seemed natural when she
decided to pack up and see some of it. A number of
years in Bermuda provided Kim with a base from which
to explore countries on both sides of the Atlantic.
She then took the long way back to Canada, spending
another year traveling throughout Europe, Africa,
New Zealand and Australia. |

Program
Director - Alan Roessel |
Alan heads up the Adventure Teen Travel team in
establishing and implementing our exciting teen programs.
Born and raised in Calgary, Alan has a deep love for
the mountains and has spent much of his life skiing,
hiking and climbing in the Canadian Rockies. After
being bitten by the travel bug, Alan lived and worked
in South East Asia for four years, two of which were
spent working directly with teens. During this period
he traveled extensively throughout Asia. Alan has
also spent considerable time exploring Africa, Europe,
the Caribbean and North and Central America. A former
college lecturer, Alan believes his passport gave
him the best education he ever received. |

Office
Manager - Theresa Roessel |
Theresa spends as much time as possible enjoying
the outdoors, which given her two young children is
not as much as it used to be! Originally from Ontario,
Theresa headed west and like so many before her, became
hooked on the skiing and hiking the Rockies provided.
After several years in Bermuda and Singapore, Theresa
has once again made the Rocky Mountains her home.
An experienced world traveler, she is at ease cruising
the autobahn, trekking up Kilimanjaro or bargaining
on the back streets of Bangkok. |
