Sunshine and Smiles


Skis, Not Skirts kicked off in style today with a lively group of six skiers.

Ruthie provided the entertainment with a recounting of her previous day's adventure finishing the Winterstart classic race with just a single pole. We're still not exactly sure how she managed to lose the other one during the race, but we gave her an A+ for effort.

Annie won the gold star of the day for her unbelievable transformation into a skating goddess after a single technique drill. (Keep your hip over your ski when you transfer from one ski to the other. It really was that easy!)

But all of us made big improvements. And S, if you're reading this, thanks for your (inadvertent) technique tip! We hope you'll join us next time (Sunday 12/21, 11am at Skyway).

Homework for next time: ski, ski, ski!
