Who Paddled in This Year's Brent Run?

The Montgomery Family: Andy & Connor

Returning to the waters with seasoned determination, Andy and Connor Montgomery are ready to face the Brent Run once again. Last year, they navigated numerous challenges, including a memorable episode with a waterlogged canoe, but they remained undaunted. Andy, a wealth advisor and portfolio manager, combines his professional acumen with a passion for the great outdoors. Connor, now further along in his studies in civil engineering at Queen’s University, brings youthful vigour and a growing expertise in environmental and structural challenges. Together, they embody experience and endurance, driven by a shared commitment to the values of Camp Mini-Yo-We and a love for adventure in nature.

The Tamming Family: Spencer & Lauren

New to the Brent Run but no strangers to Camp Mini-Yo-We, Spencer and Lauren Tamming bring fresh energy and familial synergy to this year's challenge. Spencer, our Operations Director, has a detailed eye for logistics and a heart for community service. He ensures every aspect of Camp’s operations aligns with its mission to impact young lives positively. Lauren, a teacher and dedicated volunteer, merges her educational insights with a compassionate approach to youth development. Her experience in creating supportive and enriching learning environments makes her an asset to the team and the broader Camp community. As siblings, Spencer and Lauren share a lifelong bond and understanding that will be crucial as they face the Brent Run. Their participation not only strengthens the familial aspect of this endeavour but also amplifies the spirit of collaboration and mutual support.
