Olympic Legacy for my home town!

Our local community received a nice shot in the arm from VANOC, organizers of the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic winter games for Vancouver and Whistler. This past weekend, a $750,000 legacy fund was granted to our community for the creation of recreation facilities of infastructure.

“The Sport Legacy Trust Fund is an investment in the future health of this community and an opportunity to build on its growing reputation as the “Outdoor Recreation Capital of Canada."

Squamish is home to world class mountain biking, kite boarding, rock climbing as plays host to several triathlons, bike races, adventure races and soccer, hockey and baseball tournaments.

Ideally located between Whistler and Vancouver, Squamish will host several thousand volunteers and games staff.

I'm getting into the spirit by racing in the Test of Metal and the Squamish Triathlon this summer! -Craig
