Barb has counted herself lucky to be a Yukoner for over 40 years now.She brought her children up in Tagish, which was a great jumping off place for ski trips, paddling, hiking and camping. She held a wide variety of jobs before returning to her passion, which is teaching, in Carcross for 10 years and then in Whitehorse for another 15. Barb has been a part of YFFLA for the last 15 years or so because she cares deeply about helping children develop healthy brains and bodies.
