ABOUT

Erin Greene - Owner/Operator

Erin always dreamed of having a job that would allow her to enable people to experience the outdoors, enriching their connection to nature, all while promoting health and wellness. The allure of the Hudson Bay and the extraordinary white whales that take over the Churchill River each summer are what kept her coming back to Churchill. In 2015 she decided to move and make Churchill her home. After completing her SUP certification in Hawaii that same year, Erin knew she needed to bring this incredible experience to Churchill. SUP North allows Erin to combine her passion for the whales, the water and healthy living into one. SUP offers a chance to feel the river under our feet, experience movement in our bodies, and view the environment from a different elevation that really affects our perspective of the water beneath us. Safety being her main concern, she proposed the idea of Stand­Up Paddling with the beluga whales to Sea North Tours. The enthusiastic reception of her idea was what created the possibility of sharing Stand Up Paddling with all the people who choose to explore this extraordinary part of the world. She is excited to be able to work with a company whose expertise and experience on the water is exceptional. Her professional values match up with those of Sea North Tours in regards to using only top of the line equipment, focus on safety, and caring not only about our valued customer’s experience, but also about the well­being of our precious whales.

In a world where we are often detached and only focused on the worries of the future, SUP awakens our awareness and makes us focus on the importance of the present. As a result, Erin believes that SUP can have a great impact for positive change in the way we see ourselves and the world around us.
