Sam Morse: another Local doing us Proud!
What is it about this place??? It never gets old, having some kid who we all watch growing up and enjoying the same trails as all of us, then they get out & about, & throw it down, again & again, standing on podiums around the world with that low key Maine charm & humility! Sam’s recent 1st place win at the World Juniors makes his racing at home currently in the US Nationals even more exciting… we couldn’t be more proud!
Pro Skiing re-born
What is old is new again as the announcement of a Pro Ski Tour being re-introduced brings excitement to the world of ski racing for the first time in three decades, giving an opportunity to racers everywhere to hit the slopes for cash prizes once their Olympic aspirations are retired. CV resident Craig Marshall will be working for the former Red Stallion owner Ed Rogers, who created the circuit originally. Racers Ready???
The wonderful Bear Bryant of US Ski Association fame for decades!!!
“When you can take an advocation & make a vocation out of it, it is well worth the effort!!” Those of us who love to ski, & have wanted to ski more than anything else since we were kids, & have made our life & living from the world of skiing, have a special place in our hearts for guys like Bear! It is not an easy way to earn a paycheck, but it is a lifestyle we wouldn’t trade for all the money in the world, & guys like Bear are a big reason why: friendships within the skiing community are the best on the planet!! Love ya, Bear, ski on for decades to come!!
