Don was born on October 27, 1949, in Indian Head, SK, to John and Bernice Mitchell. He attended Riverside School until Grade 7 and graduated from Crescent Heights High School. From a young age, he exhibited a passion for sports that would define much of his life. Education and staying active were important to Don, which led him to become a Physical Education teacher. Don coached the Kwahommie’s basketball team at Medicine Hat High School where he took pride in mentoring young athletes. Don was a lifeguard and an accomplished swimmer, winning many City and Provincial titles with the Butterfly Stroke. He enjoyed playing golf, tennis and track and field.
