Who are the Craigleith Coyotes?

Well if you haven't heard of us yet... Where have you been?



The Coyotes are proud to be part of the Craigleith Ski Club, proud of where we come from and what we do. The next time you participate in or watch a race at Craigleith, know that the start was set up and tended to by a world class Timing Team, that the Safety Netting and corrals were put in place by seasoned World Cup and Olympic Crew Veterans working alongside the rest of the dedicated Coyotes Crew, and those blue lines... Even if it is just a finish line, it was probably put in place by the same people who dyed the lines for Manny, Eric, Robbie, Jan, Britt and Kelly... And you know what? We are glad to do it for you too!



Remember that Race Crew is supposed to be a fun experience. Join the commaraderie, make the time to enjoy the snow and hills. There's always beer in the crew fridge, and that if you feel a cough coming on, we have the cure for that too...

Greg “Sumo” Lee

1952 to February 14, 2011

On the deck of Craigleith Ski Club, warmed by the sun, the hills and the people he loved, and by whom he was love, suffered a stroke.
Treated unsuccessfully at the Owen Sound Hospital and University Hospital in London, Greg was pronounced dead on Valentine's Day afternoon.
Master ski coach, tennis player of note.
We are saddened by his leaving. We are less without him.
A celebration of Sumo's kindness, generosity and joy for all who learned to ski through him, carved a turn for him and/or with him, and/or loved him.
In Toronto at the Donalda Club on Thursday February 24th, 2011 at 5:00 p.m. and at the Craigleith Ski Club in Collingwood on a date to be fixed.
His generosity lives on by donation and harvesting of organs and tissue. Five recipients of his organs are already benefitting. We also encourage everyone to register with the donor program at their provincial health organization.
Donations in Greg's honour may be made to Alpine Canada, Craigleith Ski Racing Program or the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada.
