Girls on Ice 2019: Photo Gallery
Editor’s Note: The 2019 Girls on Ice Canada (GOIC) program recently wrapped up at the Wheeler and Asulkan Hut!
GOIC is a tuition-free, science-immersion summer wilderness expedition that interweaves science, art and adventure to inspire leadership, curiosity and confidence in its participants.
We sent out our ACC Services Director, Sarah Karasiuk, to join the girls for a day along the Illecillewaet Glacier - these are her photos.
If you’d like to learn more about the program, you can check out our blog post here, and stay tuned to our next issue of the Gazette.
Thanks to all of our individual sponsors, supporters and participants for making it happen! Special thanks to NSERC PromoScience and to the ACC’s Official Pack Partner Osprey.

The idea for Girls on Ice Canada began at a leadership development workshop offered by Inspiring Girls founder Erin Pettit in 2015. Girls on Ice Canada founders Eleanor Bash, Alison Criscitiello, Jocelyn Hirose, and Cecelia Mortenson launched the first Girls on Ice Canada in 2018, which emulates similar Girls on Ice expeditions while offering a Canadian alpine twist.
