Going to State!

Today we spent the late afternoon preparing our skis for the State Meet!  There are so many emotions.  Some of our seniors had the realization that this would be the last time they would be waxing their skis in this room.  It seems like we were just dryland training, rollerskiing and praying for snow.  Here we are reflecting on an amazing season with the grand finale to come on Thursday!

After a long day of waxing and clean up I made my way to the concession stand to purchase some popcorn.  The following quote was on the bag and it seemed appropriate.

What is a Champion?
"Champions do not become champions when they win the event, but in the hours, weeks, months and years they spend preparing for it.  The victorious performance itself is merely the demonstration of their championship character."
-T. Alan Armstrong
