Leading The Tribe With Andrew<\/htitle>
\nFeaturing Andrew Ference<\/hfeat>
\nNHL Hockey Player, Captain for Edmonton Oilers

\nEdmonton, Alberta, Canada<\/hbod><\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\nAndrew is a Canadian professional ice hockey defenceman and captain for the Edmonton Oilers<\/a>. He’s played in the NHL since the 1999\u20132000 season and counts the Pittsburgh Penguins<\/a>, Calgary Flames<\/a>, the Boston Bruins<\/a> (with which he won a Stanley Cup Championship in 2011) and the Edmonton Oilers among the teams he has played for.<\/p>\n

Says Andrew:<\/p>\n

You work as hard as you can at everything you do, especially with sports because if it works, great. It\u2019s unbelievable. But don\u2019t count on it working. Always, always have a back-up plan in case things take a detour. Be prepared for that by doing well in school and having other interests.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

<\/div>\n

Wait a minute. What’s all this about a tribe<\/em>?<\/p>\n

Well, the tribe is the active-living fanatics of November Project<\/a>, a free public exercise group. They’re part of the Miguelito’s Little Green Car community too. See if you can spot the car in the group photo.<\/p>\n
