New Marina for Sanikiluaq

New Marina for Sanikiluaq

 

Last year presented us with the opportunity to join forces with the locals in Sanikiluaq and embark on a project that would significantly enhance their harbor. With enthusiasm and dedication, we set out to construct a marina tailored to their needs.

Our first step was to cut and drill all the lumber, cut and weld hardware and package it all for transport. Once it all arrived safely by boat across the sea, we flew up to meet the crew.

 

Once there, we engaged in extensive training sessions with the community members, ensuring that everyone felt empowered and capable of contributing to the project. These sessions not only imparted technical skills but also fostered a strong sense of camaraderie and shared purpose among us.

 

 

Working hand in hand, we embarked on the assembly process, each member of the community lending their expertise and effort. From securing the docks in place to installing essential components, every task was approached collaboratively, embodying the spirit of cooperation and unity. cooperation and unity.

 

As the docks took shape, so did a profound sense of ownership within the community. Seeing their harbor transformed before their eyes instilled a deep sense of pride and accomplishment in everyone involved. This project wasn't just about building a marina; it was about forging bonds, empowering individuals, and revitalizing a vital aspect of their community.

Now, as we eagerly await the arrival of the new year, we can't help but anticipate the sight of the marina being put to use. It stands not only as a physical structure but as a testament to what can be achieved through collaboration, dedication, and shared vision. We look forward to witnessing the community enjoy the fruits of their labor, knowing that this marina will serve as a beacon of hope and prosperity for years to come.

We can't thank the local crew enough for their hospitality and hard work. We can't wait to go back
