In memory: Lee Matasi
We are all very sad that Leeside Lee was shot and killed downtown Vancouver, Friday, Dec 2nd, 2005.
His memory will live on in all of our hearts, and in the physical structure known as "Leeside"
Fundraising for Leeside
The Leeside Stewardship Group is in the process of fundraising to build a multi-use youth space at Leeside.
Lee Matasi t-shirts, stickers, and wheels are available from Antisocial skateboard shop. www.antisocialshop.com
Local roaster, Moja Coffee is also sponsoring the project by supplying a fundraiser coffee for Leeside Tunnel. This will be a specialty custom roast made solely for Leeside, and it will be called "Leeside Tunnel Roast." One-pound bags will be going for $15 per pound, and 100% of profits will go towards the construction of Leeside. The coffee is available at Thriller and AntiSocial shops, and can be ordered online from antisocialshop.com as well.
