Welcome
A big welcome to our newest Board Director: Christine Thompson! 
 
While "big city Saskatoon" is now home, Christine fondly remembers her playful childhood in small town Saskatchewan. She happily balances her family, work, and volunteer roles. She is a mother of a busy toddler girl, works in the non-profit sector, and is excited to be working with the Children's Discovery Museum in its quest to foster creativity and a love of learning in children. Christine has 15 years of experience working with the non-profit, health, and academic sectors, in roles ranging from program delivery to senior leadership.
 
Baby Christine!
