About Dirt Relations:

Dirt Relations tells the story of three men: Patrick Lucas, an 8th generation Canadian from Vancouver Island, Thomas Schoen, a first generation immigrant from Germany, and Tom Eustache, a Secwepemc man and member of the Simpcw First Nation and how they formed an unlikely friendship to create the Indigenous Youth Mountain Bike Program.

For the past decade, the IYMP, a non-profit that assists First Nations around western Canada to develop world class multi-purpose nature trails and support outdoor recreation and healthy living, has trained hundreds of youth to build trails and engage in the sport of mountain biking. The IYMBP has worked with dozens of Nations and built more than 100km of trails and are widely recognized as leaders in fostering meaningful reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples.

About Sandy Ward:

Sandy is an Indigenous creative from the Líl’wat nation. She brings people together to create rad films that showcase local Indigenous talent. As a youth she wanted to be involved in the sports industry as an athlete but didn’t see it as a career so she went to film school in hopes of creating snowboard films. She became an athlete… which suppressed the ideas of being behind the camera. After a semi successful career as an athlete her thoughts turned towards film again. As the creative producer of the award-winning film Slides on the Mountain she is now full throttle toward creating films that recognize the local youth and lands we recreate on.

Registration is required.
