SILKEN LAUMANN ON THE MOOSE

Four-time Olympian Silken Laumann is one of Canada's most inspirational leaders. As the reigning world champion rower she fought back from a devastating training accident, and medical predictions of never being able to row again, to win a bronze medal in the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona. Silken retired in March 1999 having won three Olympic medals and four World Championships.

Silken will speak at the opening ceremonies of the Northern BC Winter Games tomorrow night at the North Peace Arena here in Fort St John and the Olympian joined us on the phone this morning from her home on Vancouver Island.

Silken is a passionate advocate of getting kids active and this morning we chatted about her charity work, her first Olympics, these upcoming Northen BC Winter Games and 4 square... Like you never played it!
