“Being a high performance athlete has taught me the art of how to balance school, sport, and the bare bones of a social life. Even though sometimes it’s hard to find time for sleep, waking up at 5:00AM is worth it when you get to watch the sun rise with your teammates three times a week. Being a part of a club is like having a second family.” – Samantha Loutet, Provincial Team Canoer at Burnaby Lake Canoe Club.
