"Boss"
Marvin Kinch
Title: Owner / President
Level of Certification: Heavy Equipment Technician
Years in Mechanics: 27 Years
​
If Marvin isn't working in the shop, he's probably out camping! He loves the outdoors, cooking, and spending time with his family.
​
Robbyn Troup
Title: Owner / Office Manager and Parts Manager
Have you called Bear Creek lately? If so, this lovely lady is who you probably spoke to!
​
Apart from helping run the shop, making sure everyone gets paid, and more, Robbyn also enjoys camping, fishing, playing cards, hanging out with her family and friends, growing her garden (with weeds), Netflix, learning and taking in new things!
​
Brian Clark
Title: Mechanic
Level of Certification: Journeyman Heavy Equipment Technician
Years in Mechanics: Lucky 13
​
Brian grew up in Mannville, AB on a grain farm. He recently moved to Beaverlodge and likes to hunt, play golf and hockey. He also loves spending time with his wife and toddler.
Cloë Troup
Title: Shop Hand (can we say Shop Bitch?)
Level of Certification: -
Years in Mechanics: -
​
Don't be deceived by Cloe's credentials. What she may lack in tangible mechanical experience and education she makes for up in work ethic (which is driven by her love for travel, McDonald's/Starbucks/Tim Hortons, car bills, and an empty wallet).
"Brendan Branden"
Brendan Dupuis
Title: Mechanic
Level of Certification: 2nd Year Heavy Equipment Technician
Years in Mechanics: 4 Years
​
When Brendan isn't hard at work in the shop, he likes hunting, camping, quadding, ski-dooing, and fishing. A classic outdoorsman!
"Pooch"
Poochie, Shop Cat
Title: Mice Menace
Level of Certification: Meow Master
Experience: Old As Dirt
​
Poochie is one of the most under-valued team members at Bear Creek. This may be because she loves to spend all day lounging around, sleeping, eating, and causing havoc for the mechanics. However, her hobbies are useful for the team, catching mice, tossing them up in the air.
