FEAT 2017 Speaker – Chris Hedges
Chris Hedges has lived a unique life. After battling drug and alcohol addiction as a youth and spending 12 months in jail, it was time for Chris to reshape and re-think his life and environments. He embarked on a serious spiritual journey traveling the world diving, surfing, hiking, exploring, and working in wonderfully exotic locations across the globe.
Chris’ dedication and determination have led him to work winters at Whistler Blackcomb as full time pro ski patroller where, last season, he achieved “patroller of the year” as voted by his peers. When winter turns to summer, Chris works with the Canadian Coast Guard as a chief cook, and is training to be a rescue specialist.

I watched this Chris dive in to ice cold water and save a girl’s life as two other people just froze. The ski across the pond event is fun exciting time and the young lady made a brave effort getting across. It quickly went sideways as she struggled to find the rope and keep her head above water. Chris could see panic and dove in and saved her life..
That’s truly an interesting story. His story will definitely inspire a lot of such people, who are also fighting against the drug and alcohol addiction to get rid of it and to get back to the mainstream of life.
