Skate Leigh's Hip Surgery Recovery Fund

As you probably know, Leigh (locally known as "Skate Leigh") loves carving up the ice at Meadow Park's ice rink in Whistler, BC. He's been doing it for over 20 years, beginning his figure skating journey in his mid-40s (after retiring from being local legend "Ski Leigh" through the 70s and 80s)! Over the years, he's shared many nuggets of wisdom about skating, health and life with everyone he's met, on and off the ice.

If you've ever been to Meadow Park, you've probably met Leigh, and likely felt his endless positive energy and love of life. Whether on the rink, at the gym, or sweating it out in the sauna.

Sadly, Leigh had a major fall while skating and broke his hip on February 22 and is now recovering from hip surgery. He's in good hands, but it will be a long road to recovery. We'd love to reach out to his community for help. If Leigh has ever impacted you or your friends and family in positive ways, please consider donating what you can to help us ensure he get's the best professional help for a swift and healthy recovery! No donation is too small!

Thank you all so much for the support! It helps us out a ton and means a lot for Leigh.

Let's keep putting out positive energy into the universe, as Leigh continues to do every day.

We are all praying he will be able to get back to the ice as soon as possible. ❤️

P.S. Here's a breakdown of the expected costs:

Whatever remains will be donated back to local charities.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us through the GoFundMe platform.

With lots of love,

Eldon & Wesley (Leigh's two sons)
