Checking Out the
Snowboard Slalom (February 8)
The weather was great in the morning, and
crowds of spectators came to see the
men's slalom event. There were people
working in all kinds of ways to make the
event a success. Some went around picking
up the trash around the race course and
grandstands, and others helped make sure
the course was in good shape after each
racer boarded down it.
Even more people showed up for the
second round of the event. The crowd was
very excited, and the cheering got really
loud. It was a bit of a hike from the
parking area to the race course, but I
thought it was fun because I got to see
plenty of interesting things on the way.
I hope you can all come see the racing
too! (Report from Yamanouchi Middle
