Reconnect with teammates, meet current coaches and student athletes at Mitchell Hall Rose Event Commons (Room 103) while learning about what’s new with Athletics. Enjoy an exclusive premiere of Heart of a Gael by documentary filmmaker, Mike Downie, and rising filmmaker and recent alumna, Mickayla Pike, Artsci’16.
Attendees will receive a ticket to the Gael's women's hockey game at 7:30 pm at the Memorial Centre against Brock University. Consider making a gift to support women's hockey at Queen's.
When documentary filmmaker Mike Downie saw the story of 100-year-old Stu Crawford in the Alumni Review, he knew he had to make a film about him.
Crawford, Arts’51, has been a presence around the Queen’s Gaels men’s hockey team for more than 75 years. But before Crawford battled on the ice for his university, he was battling in the skies over Nazi Germany as a bomb aimer with the Royal Canadian Air Force. On April 8, 1945, his Lancaster was shot out of the sky.
Miraculously, he survived and went on to study at Queen’s, where he played with the Golden Gaels from 1947 to 1951. It’s a story of heroism and heart that you won’t want to miss.
