Coach Gary Heide grew up in Minnesota with a love of athletics and the goal of being a teacher/coach. Even though it took him longer than expected to realize his dream, he appreciates his meandering path and the people who influenced him along the way. Though he can point to plenty of wins and two football state championships in Bayfield, Colorado, he chooses to judge himself by the family that gives him purpose and the athletes that he feels privileged to have coached.
