In recognition of the Humeniuk Family’s visionary leadership and transformative impact on sport and community development in Caledon, TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley President Chris Humeniuk has been inducted into the Caledon Sports Hall of Fame. The honour celebrates not only his achievements, but the profound influence the Humeniuk family has had on the growth of golf in Caledon and across Canada.
For decades, the Humeniuk family has championed the idea that sport can benefit entire communities, and their commitment has reshaped Caledon’s sporting identity, driven economic growth, and created meaningful opportunities for youth and families.

Over 30 years ago, brothers Jerry and Roman Humeniuk assumed ownership of what was then only the Heathlands course, quickly adding the North and Hoot courses in 2001 and developing a grand vision for a world-class golf facility in Caledon. In 2017, Chris (Roman’s son and Jerry’s nephew) took on responsibilities as President, shepherding in a new era that has included:
Osprey Valley becoming the first Canadian facility to join the PGA Tour’s TPC Network
An announcement of A Home for Canadian Golf with Golf Canada, including Golf Canada’s headquarters, the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame and more moving to Osprey Valley
Hosting the 2025 and 2026 RBC Canadian Open
A $1 million USD donation to power the launch of First Tee - Canada, providing transformational golf opportunities for youth across Canada.
Expansion of Osprey Valley’s facilities, including two Clubhouses and 15 Villas for on-site accommodations, creating a destination for golfers from around the world and a tourism hub in Caledon becoming Canada’s first facility to join the PGA Tour’s TPC Network, an announcement of
“It’s a tremendous honour to be welcomed into the Caledon Sports Hall of Fame and be recognized along with the many respected community builders and athletes from our community,” said Humeniuk. “My father and uncle always believed that putting roots down in Caledon and investing in the game of golf would create a positive impact that could help uplift our community, and it’s incredibly humbling to join the list of so many athletes and builders who have done the same over the years.”
While the arrival of the 2025 RBC Canadian Open is likely the most well-known event to take place at Osprey Valley, perhaps the family’s most enduring contribution lies in their commitment to supporting the growth of golf and its positive impact on future generations.
In 2021, TPC Toronto and the Humeniuk family provided a $1 million USD donation to help launch First Tee – Canada, a foundational gift that enabled First Tee to quickly expand its programming, which offers life‑skills-based programming through golf to thousands of youth.

TPC Toronto continues to support the program as a host facility, offering a place where young golfers - many experiencing the sport for the first time - can learn, play, and grow. Beyond First Tee, TPC Toronto regularly provides free and discounted access for junior golfers, further breaking down barriers to participation.
Caledon resident Barrie Shepley, former Olympic coach, owner of Personal Best Health and Performance, and head coach at C3 Canadian Cross Training Club, hosted the Caledon Sports Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony and said the recognition is part of a years-long commitment that continues to leave a lasting legacy in Caledon and beyond.
“A lot of people see an event like the RBC Canadian Open, with the eyes of the world on Caledon and Osprey Valley, and think of it as an overnight success. The reality is it was an overnight success 35 years in the making. In his remarks, Chris really captured the essence of all the people who have contributed to that success, and it’s a story worth celebrating and one our community should be very proud of,” said Shepley.
With the 2026 RBC Canadian Open just months away, along with TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley’s continued growth in profile as one of Canada’s top golf and lifestyle destinations, the future remains bright with opportunities for Osprey Valley’s continued positive impact. Last year’s RBC Canadian Open created an estimated $85 million economic impact, and with the resort continuing to create new reasons for visitors to explore Caledon, even stronger economic momentum for the region looks to be ahead.
