The girls ended up having a good time at their ski awards. Tailor insisted that she didn’t want to go, she wasn’t going to get an award. I forced her to go. She ended up with 2nd place in 11-12 y.o. girls (neck medal). She also got her coach’s award (trophy). Good thing she made it there. I was surprised that Emily didn’t get an age group award since by the end of the season she was skiing about the same as her buddy Julia who got 2nd place. Then she got the most improved skier award (trophy – 2nd year in a row). It was based solely on times. She missed two of her races due to her GATE program. That meant her first races were included in the times, and they must have been pretty lousy. Sabrina, being on the development team, didn’t get any awards. However, we’ve had a difficult time convincing her that to be on a racing team she has to go around the gates, not straight down. She was enthralled by the trophies. She asked how she could get one next year. Daddy told her that she has to go around all the gates from the top of the hill to the bottom. She asked if she’d get one even if the other person was faster than her. We told her she’d have a chance. Another local paper picture.
