Alyeska, Alaska Here We Come!
Also, in mid-December, some J2s have the choice to take a trip to Alyeska, Alaska, just out of Anchorage to race some FIS races (2 gs and 2 sl). About 7 girls and a few guys are presently debating whether they will be attending these races or not. A few have chosen, but we don’t know the costs yet. It shows to be a fun-filled trip and would be to a destination that no one has visited yet-not that I know of at least. I’m hoping that I can go to Alaska, it would be the trip of a lifetime and I can just imagine it being very beautiful and picturesque.
The plan seems completely ridiculous and sick. Leave for Vail on Saturday morning and stay there for two weeks. When we arrive back to Vermont, we get a week off for Thanksgiving break. Then, back to school for a week and leave for Alaska for just over a week and go to school for a couple more weeks and finally winter break! The time from now until then seems like no time at all, but there is much to accomplish during that time. I have to remember to stay focused throughout the year, as junior year is the most important, and especially during the winter months where school will be difficult while we are away. I hope that everybody can go to Alaska that were told that they could go and that it be an exceptional trip!!!
