Biographical history

Heather Metcalfe was born on August 9, 1978 in Portage La Prairie. In 1995, she was a grade eleven student at a high school in Yellowknife. During the summer of 1995, Metcalfe attended a science camp sponsored by the Department of Renewable Resources. The camp had 11 students and 3 instructors. Candidates for the camp were selected because of marks and teacher recommendations. The purpose of the camp was to introduce students to biological, earth and social sciences. All students were required to complete one project for a Career and Technology credit. Working under the supervision of Tom Andrews, a sub arctic archaeologist for the Culture and Heritage Division of the Government of the Northwest Territories, Metcalfe successfully completed a project to record Dogrib traditional place names.
