Gavin Hagens

My name is Gavin William Hagens. I am the youngest son of Preston and Sarah Hagens. I have an older brother, Osten.

My life began in the small hamlet of New Brigden, along with my education from ECS to grade 4. I attended OPS for grades 5-8, and SCHS for grades 9-12. I have enjoyed playing sports for as long as I can remember. Around here it is hockey in the winter, baseball in the summer with school sports squeezed in between. Mom made me take swimming lessons too, now I spend my summers as a lifeguard at the Oyen pool. Hockey is my favorite sport. I played hockey in Oyen, Medicine Hat, Brooks and with the 3C’s. I played spring hockey, AA, and attended many hockey camps. I wrapped up my minor hockey run playing in the U18 Tier 1 Provincial Championship. My hobbies range from vehicles, to woodwork, to technology and I’m a pretty good shot. My dad, Preston and I, took a 2006 F-150, did body work, painted it, and customized it together, which became my first truck. Osten, dad and I enjoy collecting, and shooting firearms at targets that we design and build in our shop. I plan to attend Olds College next year. Throughout all my years enrolled in school, I have created the most important memories that will stick with me forever. “Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened”.
