They'll show how it used to be done historically when ice was used for shipping. They'll be scratching it in a checkerboard way and scoring it. |
We live and breathe the four core YMCA values of honesty, respect, responsibility and caring. We try to build strong families, children and communities. We promote character development and high self-esteem on the team. I wouldn't be doing this if I didn't believe in those values. I pick my coaches with the values in mind. |
We lost about $50,000 worth of equipment. Our six starting blocks were worth about $1,000 each, and we also lost two computerized timing systems, one for practice and one for competition. We have raised about $4,000, so we're behind where we need to be. |
We made miniature snowmen. Instead of carrots, we used Fruit Loops. Some kids were sorry they couldn't take it with them. |
We placed third the last two years. But we have been league champions in three of the last five years. I am very proud of my team. |
We're hoping that over the next six years, some of these kids here might have a chance of being Olympians. |
