PAST EVENTS:

March 4, 2006 - This past weekend saw 22 teams and 104 skills
athletes compete in the Local Basketball Competition.
It was a huge success as high fives were flying, new
friendships formed, and some fierce competition. A
special thanks to our dedicated officials. Additionally a
special thanks to Nancy Logan, Kristine Burton,
Charlie Jones, George & Katie Greczylo, Leslie Stien,
Erica Massimi, Marta Parker, Patricia Maurer at
J.F.K. and the Elks Lodge #2304. I would also like to
thank the 100+ volunteers who came out to show
their support for our athletes.

March 5, 2006 – There were 10 skiers who ascended to the mountain
top at Ski Butternut for the Regional Competition. Though the numbers were few the smiles were not and the excitement could be felt everywhere. Congrats to our skiers for braving the mountain, because you couldn’t get me up there.
