... Steve Lee participation in the Sydney Olympics Torch Relay...Steve Lee participation in the Sydney Olympics Torch Relay...Sydney Torch Relay 2000... Lee Sydney Torch Relay 2000 Australian Olympians ...Steve Lee grew up in Falls Creek and had skis on his feet when he was just two years old. He later became a member of the Falls Creek Race Club and at the age of 14 won State and National Junior titles. After repeated success, Steve was selected to race overseas in the Australian Junior team. He won the Australian Open Championship at the age of 17. For 10 years, Steve never missed a race in the World Cup Circuit. Overall, he claimed 20 top 15 finishes in Downhill, Super-G and combined events. Towards the end of his career Lee swapped the World Cup circuit for the World Pro Tour in the USA, winning the Pro Downhill Tour ‘King of the Mountain’ title. He was also running a photography business in Falls Creek and was also involved in sports commentating on Australian television. This included commentating Alpine Freestyle events at four Winter Olympics and several World Championships. When the Summer Olympics were held in Sydney in 2000, Steven participated in the Torch Relay. The Torch departed from Athens on the 10th May 2000 and arrived in Sydney on 15th September 2000. The journey totalled 129 days, including 100 days travelling through every State and Territory of Australia. After 67 days in Australia, on 13 August 2000, the Olympic Torch reached the 'high point' in its 100-day journey. At 1,861 metres above sea level, the flame burned bright against a darkening sky as three-time Winter Olympian Steve Lee skied with it down the summit ridge of Mount Hotham towards a crowd of 5,000 in the mountain village. The certificate acknowledges Steve Lee's participation in the event.This image and certificate are significant because they capture an important event in Australian sporting history.Two colour photos of Steven Lee lighting the cauldron at the Hotham Village for the overnight stay of the Olympic Torch in 2000. Also included is a certificate in recognition of his contribution to the Sydney 2000 Olympics.On Certificate:- CITIUS ALTIUS FORTIUS STEVE LEE IN RECOGNITION OF AND APPRECIATION FOR YOUR CONTRIBUTION TO THE SUCCESS OF THE GAMES OF THE XXVII OLYMPIAD EN RECONNAISSANCE DE VOTRE CONTRIBUTION AU SUCCES DES JEUX DE LA XXVII OLYMPIADEsteve lee, sydney torch relay 2000, australian olympians -
