SF: Speaking of boobs, tell us about the Rad Boob Club Calendar and why you decided to start the project?

Tessa Treadway: Dave and I have started up Pemberton Young Life. We are leading skiing, hiking, climbing and surfing trips all focused on loving teenagers! Look for us on the Blackcomb every Saturday, and I can tell you more about it.
SF: You’ve been traveling to promote the Rad Boob Club Calendar all over BC. How many times have you driven across BC this month?
Tessa Treadway: Five, hopefully next time I will get to stop at Miniature Land and the Enchanted Forest!
SF: I hear you can gut a partridge as well as you ski? What other skills do you have?
Tessa Treadway: My sewing skill is the skill I’m most proud of at the moment.
