Great to hear our grandson verbally, after we have watched him perform from the very beginning of his logging sport career at the age of 4. He is truly a great athlete, well spoken young man. It was his grandfather, Gord Hart, who started in the sport, in 1974, that took his father, Greg Hart, to bring Stirling to where he is now. His dad was a climber, which is where he started in his logging sport career, but his grandfather was a chopper/sawyer, which is now where Stirling is competing. We are so proud of this young man and is accomplishments.
