630 Milla Grin
|
|
631 Jim Habeck
|
|
632 Lezley Johansen, Team Captain
|
| Milla has a sneaky little smile on her
face, and what we suspect is she’s yielded to Lezley’s sales pitch and
has been in the Bloody Marys. When Milla wanted to join our team we
didn’t have an opening, and she was first on our wait list for two
years before there was an opening. We are thankful she waited because
she’s a valuable addition to our team. |
|
Last year’s picture of Jim showed a
very exhausted racer having practiced for 2 hours in the morning, and
then doing a double race in the afternoon. This year we had the same
situation, and Brian hunted around and found this picture of Jim
looking more like himself. |
|
Lezley is our team captain and number
one cheerleader. When she wasn’t on the race course, she spent most of
her time trying to convince the remaining members of the team to give
up the beer and start drinking Bloody Marys. |

633 Lee Erickson
|
|
634 Kathy Lucas
|
|
635 Katie Connolly
|
Lee
and Jim are the senior members of our team, going back to the
nineties. And they’re still going at it strong. Brian
hunted around and found this picture of Lee when he wasn’t tired from
just finishing serious racing, and he looks genuinely happy.
| | You
can see from the smile on her face that Kathy has had a good day on the
slopes. A very consistent racer, she always has good times and a
good handicap to help our team.
| | Guess
what! Katie is taking a maternty leave next year. I’m sure
some of the ladies already knew the secret, but it caught the rest of
us by surprise. You can see from the smile on her face that she’s
a very happy mom-to-be.

636 Mary Hall
| | 637 Kim Taraschi
| | 638 John Kasprick
|
| When
Mary’s daughter graduated from high school, she handed her GS suit down
to her mom, and mom has made very good use of it. Here’s Mary
showing off her new wool ski sweater and the latest in ladies headwear. | | Kim
and Lezley have been our main cheerleaders over the years, and this is
a sad time for the team. Kim’s husband found a new job in
Houston, Texas and she’ll be moving down there to join him. Last
year when I showed the Foggy Goggles jersey to the team, Kim got busy,
looked up a picture of ULLR, and re-drew the picture so it could be
used to make a shirt for the Wednesday team which she designed.
| | John
is an intense racer, and the fastest member of our team. One of
Lezley’s victims, he’s actually learned how to drink something besides
beer.

| | 639 Scott Froehlke
| |
|
| | Scott
is new to our team, and a very welcome addition. It took
only a few races for him to get into the rhythm of everything, and
every week his time improved.
