USANS Story Project- 2016 RECAP

ALMOST 200 DONORS CONTRIBUTED $96,490 THAT WAS MATCHED FOR A TOTAL OF $192,980. THANK YOU FOR YOUR GENEROSITY!

Today in St Paul MN everyone from U8’s to masters (who will be competing for their national title!) will take to the air.  In Garmisch GER, Kevin Bickner, Mike Glasder, and Will Rhoads, products of programs and events like today’s in St Paul, will represent the US in the second stop of the Four Hills Tournee.  At both of these venues, and at others across the US, more life lessons will be learned, more friendships initiated or deepened, more personal demons conquered. More stories written. In sports as small and volunteer-dependent as ours it is not such a long road from St Paul to Garmisch.  Or Schonach, or Lahti, or Oslo.   There are very few degrees of separation which begets connections across age, ability, and geography.  This intimacy and the challenges inherent in both ski jumping and Nordic combined force us to rely heavily on each other.  This is both the burden and the gift. Mostly the gift. Happy New Year.
