Nova Scotians heading to lumberjack championship
Canada has serious skill in the lumberjack department, and Scott Read is heading to Germany to prove it to the world.
The 34-year-old engineering instructor at Dalhousie University’s Truro campus won the coveted spot on Canada’s national woodsman team this summer, and in November he’ll compete as part of the five-man team at the Stihl Lumberjack World Championship in Stuttgart.
Scott was also featured on CTV news with Dan MacIntosh. You can view the video here.
Congratulations Scott!
