Western Slipstream

September 26, 2014 - September 28, 2014

What? Connected in Motion’s 3rd Annual Western Slipstream Weekend
When? Friday September 26th – Sunday September 28th, 2014
Where? Alpine Club of Canada, Canmore, Alberta

A Slipstream Weekend is an active, social and educational weekend for adults (19+) living with Type 1 diabetesBut that explanation sounds so formal… What it really is… is a weekend jam packed full of outdoor adventure, engaging workshops, great food and incredible people. It’s a chance to connect (or re-connect) with like-minded Type 1s, get out and try something new, learn from each others’ experiences and celebrate the year’s accomplishments – focusing on the positive aspects of what we CAN do with Type 1 diabetes. 

This year, we are so excited to be heading to the beautiful Rocky Mountains for Western Slipstream. Western Slipstream will be hosted out of the Alpine Club of Canada Canmore Clubhouse and will offer up some fabulous opportunities for hiking and climbing in one of Canada’s most beautiful playgrounds.
