Janet wears many hats, toques, buffs, and scarves. She is a dedicated teacher at Banded Peak School and a proud mom of three creative, active boys who have been involved in all of XCBC’s programs.
In addition to her teaching and parenting roles, Janet is a doctoral student pursuing a degree in educational leadership.

Secretary
Chunlee Jackson
Chunlee has lived in Bragg Creek for over 9 years. She started her daughter in Bunnies, and her daughter has since been in the biathlon program and the Trail Ninjas program. Chunlee’s youngest is currently in Jackrabbits, and she hopes he will continue in his sister’s footsteps with the biathlon program. Both children have also participated in the biking programs.
Chunlee loves XCBC because of its programs and the community around it. She wants to support the club, see it thrive, and continue to provide awesome programs for local families.

Directors
Noland Krush
Noland grew up as a competitive cross-country skier in Saskatchewan, progressing from Jackrabbits to the Challenge program and eventually competing nationally with the Saskatchewan Provincial Ski Team. After many years away from the sport, he moved with his family to Bragg Creek to be closer to ski trails and quickly joined XCBC.
All three of Noland’s children ski with XCBC in the Jackrabbits and Nordic Ninjas programs. He currently serve on the Board of Directors, volunteer as a wax technician, and coach within the Nordic programs. Noland especially enjoys seeing young skiers gain confidence when their technique and equipment come together and skiing starts to feel effortless.
Skiing opened many doors for him thanks to dedicated volunteers and mentors, and it’s a privilege for him to give back through XCBC by helping young athletes grow, enjoy the outdoors, and experience both personal achievement and strong team spirit.
Jen Reddish
Jen lives in Bragg Creek with her husband and three boys. She works as a psychotherapist specializing in maternal mental health in her private practice and enjoys volunteering for the XC Bragg Creek Club. Jen has an active lifestyle with her family and enjoys camping, hiking, biking, swimming and all kinds of winter sports with her kids. All three of her kids have been in the XCBC Ski and Mountain Bike Club and love their programming for skill development and community connections.
