Open to all USSA registered RMD JIV Competitors
The event is a great opportunity for socializing and sportsmanship with the country team awards (a Prater tradition) created by the late Bill Sweitzer. The kids are divided into teams upon arrival and compete not only with race results but must also show good sportsmanship, do good deeds and help others while they are here to be rewarded with great prizes that Dan’s daughter, local Stephanie Prater, receives from the ski industry.
This approach helps build long-lasting relationships and supports the whole “Team Spirit” aspect of things. The community helps make this event extra special by donating money for the event t-shirt and Red Lady Realty, Artesans, Maxwells, Lobar, Secret stash, McGill’s provide a wonderful barbecue on Saturday prepared by the Garcia family, Bryson family and the Prater family for the racers, parents and coaches.
Help your kids get into the fun of things! Kids take their nation pride seriously and makes this race truly unique! Colored Gatorade is a great way to mark up the snow around the race venue. Colored markers, colored duck tape, poster board, anything creative that kids can use to create signs of support for their nation add to the fun. It may not be a bad idea to bring some of this with you in advance as our local resources can be limited. Have fun and get creative!
