Ros is a certified SUP instructor based out of Halifax and has been working for Girls on Boards since 2019. In her final year at Acadia, she got involved with GOB as a way to remain connected to and involved in water-based recreation in a more accessible way. As co-director, Ros works to build community partnerships, to create capacity to say 'yes' as much as possible, and to create really fun outdoor recreation experiences. Although much of her time is spent behind the scenes, she can't resist supporting lots of in-person programming.

Rebecca has always had a love for watersports from living on the Bras d'Or and working at summer camps. Prior to returning home to Cape Breton, she lived in the Scottish Highlands, where she knew a program like Girls on Boards would be perfect for girls and women throughout Sutherland and was so excited when Beth Simco and the Lairg & District Learning Centre got behind the idea. There was always a new loch to discover and being on the water was such a unique way to experience a community. Being back in Cape Breton now allows her to provide opportunities for her local community.
