I have had the pleasure of working alongside Shelley Crawford in a sport tourism capacity for 10 years. Much of my success as a sport tourism leader I can attribute to Shelley's ability to communicate and build relationships in the sports industry that translated into event bidding success for Mississauga. There is no one in the Sports Tourism industry with more experience, integrity and "get the job" attitude. NSO's and PSO's alike can attest to her professionalism and her going "above and beyond" work ethic in order to find the best venue, accommodations and host city to meet the needs of their athletes, officials and financial plans. I hope that our paths continue to cross so that I always have the opportunity to work with and learn from Shelley's vast experience and knowledge of all things sports tourism.
