Paul Gaudet – Lower Cape, N.B.

At 70, Paul Gaudet still works full-time managing staff at Hopewell Rocks.

Paul is also an avid hiker involved in the Moncton Outdoor Enthusiasts Club. He leads weekly hikes, everything from easy to strenuous.  Other members of the club are also prime examples of Silver Warriors. Some in their 80s easily keep up with the younger members of the group on extensive hikes. The group is also a great example of inclusivity of all ages and levels of capability to hike.

Paul says it’s important to try to get out and do what you can whether that’s a few steps around the block or full on hiking or other sport in which you are interested.

We want to hear from anyone who thinks they know a Silver Warrior who they think should be featured.  (I have not advertised these sites until we have a few stories to post.)
