–Lesley Stowe Fine Foods is thrilled to announce their official sponsorship of the Canadian Ski Jumping team. With essential funding needed to strengthen and advance the sport, their generous sponsorship is helping to secure a future for ski jumping in Canada.

Beyond financial support, Lesley is sharing her passion for the culinary arts with Canada’s premier athletes offering tips for easy, healthy and delicious meals that will keep them fit and flying high off the ramps.

“I have always been a skiing enthusiast, but never knew the talent, drive and courage it demands until seeing these young athletes. From the first competition I attended, I was amazed at the grace and artistry of the sport and knew I wanted to help Canada’s teams go the distance,” said Stowe. “A healthy diet is an integral part of improving athletic performance and I am excited to share the tasty and nutritious meals I’ve created just for these athletes to help keep them in top training condition. I look forward to seeing if they are as smooth in the kitchen as they are on the hills!”

With Ski Jumping Canada severely underfunded, the sponsorship will support everything from coaching expenses and travel to training equipment and team clothing. With hopes of becoming medal contenders at the Olympic Winter Games, Stowe’s support brings Canada’s team one step closer to the podium and a place amongst fellow world-class ski jumpers.

“Without the support from Lesley Stowe, we could not continue the high-level training and coaching required to remain competitive in this sport,” said Brent Morrice, chairman of Ski Jumping Canada. “This sponsorship presents an incredible opportunity for these elite athletes to reach new heights after so much hard work and dedication to their sport. We are proud to be named Lesley Stowe Fine Foods’ Canadian Ski Jumping Team and can’t wait to see what new milestones we can achieve.”
