1/5/09 Message from Alan Lauba, Director

Juniors and J4 Training Group,

Congrats to all for a great Warm up SL, and to the J1/2 racers out in Utah. We have had some great scores from many racers. I was just watching live timing and saw that our boys were moving from the 70's and 90's to top 25 to 40's. Moving up more than half the field is excellent progress in an elite level event. Some of the   results will be posted on our cmacskiracing.com web site, or you can go to USSA.org, or FIS-Ski.com to see all the official results. You can search results by a racers name,   or event for all junior races.

This week the J1/J2's travel to Schweitzer for their first qualifier. It's time to let loose and go! Now that we have done all our work on skills, and technique, don't forget, it's a ski race, and the winner is the fastest one down, not the one that just looks good. Good luck to all of you!
