Our Board of Directors meets monthly, usually the first Monday of every month.

I have served on the Confluence Heritage Society Board of Directors since January 2007, and served as Secretary prior to taking on the President's duties in January 2009. Originally from Maple Creek, Saskatchewan, I have previously been a volunteer at Fort Walsh National Historic Site, the Saskatoon Western Development Museum, and the Saskatoon Indian-Metis Friendship Centre, amongst others.
I have resided in Rocky Mountain House since 2006 with husband Scott and daughter Amelia.I teach fiddle and have performed and competed across Canada.

In the winter my partner and I run a dog-sledding company and a Timber Cabin B & B outside of town. We have been involved in the Outdoor Adventure profession for over 30 years.
Rocky Mountain House became our home 14 years ago when we began running Voyageur Canoes on our nearby North Saskatchewan River. Our clients enjoyed stopping at the Historic Site to visit the riverside Tipi Camp, experiencing the Metis program and having a cup of Labrador tea, as well as touring the original HBC fort walking the same paths as our fur traders did some 200 years ago.
I became involved with "the Friends" of the site to support this great resource and help keep it functioning into the future. In the spring and summer, for the past 3 years, I also work at the site as an interpreter with the student programs. My passion is Experiential Education and our school programs are a great way for our children to learn our Canadian history with a "hands on" approach which I believe aids in a greater retention of the subject and hopefully creates ambassadors of the site for its future.

My husband and I operate a cattle ranch north of Rocky Mountain House. I have volunteered for many organizations over the years. Although I have been a member of the Friends of the Park (now the Confluence Heritage Society) since it began some 25 years ago, I became more actively involved in about 1995. Since then I have held several executive positions.
I have always enjoyed history and as a former teacher like to encourage learning. I have also enjoyed working with the students we hire to work in the gift shop each summer.

I am a support worker at COPE (Rocky Mountain House Society for People with Disabilities). In my spare time I like to make quilts and rugs and other crafts which reflect our cultural heritage.
I became involved with the Confluence Heritage Society several years ago because the Historic Site is part of my own history and the history of my community.
I have found that belonging to the "Friends" has been a lot of fun and I have enjoyed taking part in activities such as the Canada Day Barbeque.

Businesswoman Carolyn Kent has been the organizer for many of our events such as the Rupert's Land Colloquium and the Fur Trade Banquets.
Carolyn claims that she joined the Friends "because I thought I'd get to wear costumes".

I worked as a Nurse on the First Nation Reserves for many years and have always been interested in the history of Rocky Mountain House and area.
I am now retired and enjoy travelling, hiking and volunteering. I have served on many other boards as well.



A retired educator, and a former teacher of Social Studies, with my husband Pat we have had a life long love of History.
I joined the Confluence Heritage Society, (then The Friends) in 1990 and have served in most positions on the Board.
I have served as a Councillor for many years in Grande Prairie and Rocky Mountain House and currently sit on new exciting Boards in Rocky including the Chair of the new West Country Welcoming Committee for immigrants, The Citizens Advisory Committee, the Chair of the West Country Dug Coalition and the Chair of the Municipal Planning Commission.

A former teacher and vice principal on the Sunchild and O'Chiese First Nations, I was fascinated by Rocky Mountain House history when I moved to the area in 1984.
I became a "Friends" member shortly after and then a board member in the following years.
Inspired by the 'West Country', I currently work as an artist, musician and photographer and a part time Parks Canada employee.
