Heidi introduced Doug Hunt. Doug aka known as Doug the Great is a multi talented motivational speaker that grew up in Glen Morris. Doug also works at Participation House in Brantford as Director of Marketing. Doug is very entertaining. He enjoys working with grade 4 and grade 10 students. His main message is to Fail Forward and never give up. Doug is known though out North America has one of the best stilt walkers. Some where along the line he injured himself and his doctor told him that he need to change his name to Doug( you probably needed to be there) Anyway after some soul searching and some failed attempts he recovered and set a Guinness world record for walking 25 steps on the world tallest stilts. In the meantime he raised over 100K for Participation House. Doug interest in magic came from watching Ed Sullivan show. He was lucky to meet his hero that he watched as a child in a Hamilton Club several years ago. Unfortunately I can't describe some of his magic tricks even when he tried to show us how he did it Chris Ainsworth thanked the speaker and Prez Jim gave the official club thanks. On a personal note we should thank Heidi for bringing out such a entertaining guest. |
