chairperson - MJ SIEBOLD

MJ has been an animal lover all her life.  She graduated from the Animal Health Technician program at NAIT in 1983 & began working at the Lynnwood Veterinary Hospital in Edmonton.  In 1990 she, her husband & 2 boys moved back to her hometown of Lac La Biche where they have a small farm, having had pigs, cows, horses & most recently Boer goats & even a llama!  In addition to their small farming operation, they also consider 2 dogs and a cat as members of the family.  She was involved in 4-H both as parent & Veterinary Science Project leader for well over a decade.  From the time she was a small girl, she rescued anything that needed help, from birds, to caterpillars to our four-legged companion animals.  When expecting her first son, her sister said to her “I just can’t picture you with a baby… a litter of puppies for sure though!”  

She has always been a big believer in “being the change you want to see in the world” & recognized while working for the former Town of Lac La Biche many years ago that there was a desperate need in our region for an animal rescue/shelter. So, in 2014, when her boys were grown & gone, she set out to establish one.  On October 29, 2014 she was elected as Board Chairperson to the newly incorporated Lac La Biche Regional Humane Society & served 4 terms in that role.  She then took a much needed half-step back to the Vice-Chair position, allowing her to better focus on programming & fundraising, & is now back in the Chairperson position for a final term.   She is proud to be a part of a community that understood that there was clearly a problem with too many animals in need, & then embraced the Humane Society as a key part of the solution in ensuring the animals in our region are treated humanely.



Vice Chair - stacie dease

Stacie has been an animal lover her whole life.  Over the years she has opened her home to many strays.  She has ended up giving permanent homes to a few of them after they were unwanted by their owners.  She has been happily married for 23 years to her husband Dale who also has a soft spot for animals.   She is almost an empty nester with 2 teenage boys one of which is off to college to pursue his trade.  She has been a resident of Lac la biche since 1989. She is currently the proud mom of 7 Fur Babies, 3 dogs 2 of which were rehomed to them, 4 cats 1 of them who is now 16yrs old, happy and healthy that she adopted as a stray who was going to be euthanized by the vet back in the day when we had no Humane Society to house stray cats for more than 3 days.  She 100% support the work that the Humane Society does. Recently she has started fostering a few of the animals until they can be placed in there Fur Ever Home and have directed the TNR program for the Feral cat colony out at Golden Sands.  She is excited to join the board and help as many animals in need as possible.

Director at Large - Christina Wac

​Christina is originally from Calgary. She moved to Vancouver to complete her Masters of Library and Information Studies (MLIS)  and subsequently moved to Lac La Biche in 2018 to work as a librarian. She has been a self-proclaimed ‘cat-lady’ all her life (she even chose to get a cat over a trip to Disneyland when she was a child and had the same cat for 21 years!). Christina is a regular cat volunteer and especially likes to spend time socializing the shy cats in the shelter. She began volunteering for LLBRHS in 2020, and later fostered and adopted her current cat. She has previous board and research experience and is excited to work alongside the other board members!
