Hall of Fame Honorees

One of the most celebrated athletes the sport of figure skating has ever known, Peggy Fleming adopted Colorado Springs as her hometown in 1965 when she moved to the Pikes Peak region to train with legendary coach Carlo Fassi. Working under Fassi's tutelage at the Broadmoor World Arena, Fleming became one of the most successful figure skaters in history, blending a rare combination of precision and grace that thrilled audiences worldwide.

From 1964-68, Fleming was America's premier figure skater, winning five consecutive U.S. National Championships. Her dominance extended to the international arena as well, where she won three consecutive World Championships from 1966-68 and a gold medal at the 1968 Olympic Winter Games in Grenoble, France.

Fleming concluded her competitive career in the late 1960s, and has since remained active in the sport of figure skating as a performer in numerous television specials and as a commentator for ABC Sports. A recipient of numerous honors, Fleming is a member of the United States Olympic Hall of Fame and the United States Figure Skating Association Hall of Fame.

Fleming graduated from Colorado Springs' Cheyenne Mountain High School and later attended Colorado College.
