Humans of Northwood: Nicholas Hayden ‘24

“This is my first year at Northwood. I am a senior here and on the boy’s Prep hockey team. I am from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I live about 45 minutes from the Rocky Mountains, so I like to go fishing, hiking, and riding my bike. After Northwood, I want to study business in college, and my end goal is to be a business owner.

“A fun fact about me is that my thumbs are double-jointed and can pop out of the socket.

“I like to go to town here and see the views. Mountain Day was fun and hiking Hurricane was outstanding. I haven’t skied here yet, but I would like to try. Some of my closest friends here are Cedric, Anderson, and Owen.

“At home, I have one brother. Me and my brother went ATVing in the mountains, and one of the ATVs had an engine break down and the other ATV’s brakes stopped working. We tied them together with a rope, and the one with the engine (but no breaks) was in front, pulling the one with no engine. The slope was very steep, so it was pretty sketchy.”
