🏆CHAMPION Huge congratulations to Tara Ashrafi fro

🏆CHAMPION Huge congratulations to Tara Ashrafi from the Fort St John Elks Speed Skating Club, recipient of the Speed Skating BC Champion Award! Being a champion isn’t just about podium finishes, it’s about character. This award recognizes individuals who care deeply, choose to learn, and take the first step to advocate for others.

Tara wanted to make speed skating more accessible for everyone. She attended specialized workshops on adapted programming, asked questions, and took those lessons directly to public skating sessions to support her community members. Through her spirited advocacy, fundraising, and dedication to supporting persons with disabilities, she is truly helping plant the seeds of inclusion across our province.

Please join us in celebrating Tara’s incredible leadership and impact!

Huge congratulations to Arya Jahns and Heath Kenne
