Looking back at the winter, it appears Eastern Ski Jumping is back on the up- swing. This sport has always had a cyclical nature to it and it looks like we are back on the right side of the cycle. A group of young skiers have stepped up to the bigger hills and results at JO's improved from last year. This is a good sign!
It is hard to balance all the factors of becoming a top ski jumper with all the
elements of being a kid. For this reason there will be opportunities available for those
skiers who want to see where they can go with this sport but also opportunities for those
who don't want to make a big commitment now. Life gets serious soon enough! For
whatever level of commitment that interests you, I hope this schedule will give you the
opportunities you need. When you are making your summer plans, take a good look
at what you can reasonably do and schedule accordingly. As usual, OTC use demands
getting touch with me at least two weeks in advance and preferably sooner. So, let's look
to summer and see what we can accomplish. See you on the hill (or at the gym)!
| CONGRATULATIONS to Easterners Carl VanLoan, Jed Hinkley and Bill Demong, members of the Junior World Champion Nordic Combined Team! |
THANK YOU to Nick Dyslin and SWIX for their
support this season. We appreciate your generosity! |
