Elizabeth Harries - Sailors for the Sea

Elizabeth Harries

“The water provides so much for our wellbeing and development, but cannot if we do not treat it properly. As adventurers and those that engage in sport on the water, our activities thrive in a clean and enjoyable environment. If we don’t take actions now, not only will our sports and adventures suffer, but so will our mental, emotional, and physical health. Being on the water is nourishment for the soul.”

Elizabeth Harries is currently the Sustainability Lead and program developer for Lake of the Woods International Sailing Association (LOWISA). Through LOWISA, she has worked with Sailors for the Sea for two years, last year achieving gold certification, and this year aiming for platinum. Apart from LOWISA, she has been involved in the racing community in Vancouver BC.
