Life Stores Markham - Lauren Wasylkiw & Shane Konings

How many young couples in our community have achieved the highest level of a sport in our country and yet remain grounded and humble? Well you can hear from one such couple, Lauren Wasylkiw and Shane Konings, who have done just that. These two impressive people share with us how they started enjoying the sport of curling at a young age and then how they turned this childhood game into appearances at national championships.

Find out how Lauren and Shane first met and how, many years later, they became a couple both on and off the ice. Is it easier or more difficult to be compete side by side with someone that you are in a personal relationship with? Lauren and Shane will reveal their answer to this age-old question. Shane will share his memories of growing up on a farm and how it has influenced his life in many ways.
