Skimeister

This week we had the 34th annual intermural competition. When the school started in 1938 skiing was a much simpler sport. Whether you cross-country skied, ski jumped, ran slalom gates, or tucked a downhill course, you always used the same set of gear. And so if you raced you were a four event skier.

To pay homage to this concept, we always take one day in February to be outside on her skis and snowboards all day. We always hold an informal nordic and biathlon race, set up a small slalom course, and do some freestyle jumping. The bronze – silver – gold medals are chocolate chip cookies, as you can see in the picture below.
