We were recently approached by Accessible Media Inc. to create another documentary for their Our Community program. As we looked for organizations in the Peace Region that would be a fit, we came across the Grande Prairie Wolverines. After meeting with their program coordinator Emily Van Amstel, Rew knew we had to capture the amazing work they are doing through adapted sports.
We decided to focus on their inaugural sledge hockey tournament, the first of its kind ever held in Grande Prairie. Through that experience, we were able to meet some amazing people and capture their stories. The documentary will premiere on AMI nationwide on Thursday, Nov. 22 at 6:30 PM. AMI is channel 888 on most cable distributors (TELUS, Shaw, Eastlink, etc.), or 48 on Bell Systems.
