Senator Casperson offered the following resolution: Senate Resolution No. 116. A resolution recognizing the Pine Mountain Ski Jump in Dickinson County, Michigan, on the 75th Anniversary of its first competition. Whereas, The impressive record of performance that the Jump has hosted over the years provides an ongoing inspiration to local residents and visitors alike and brings with it a significant contribution to the regional economy; and Whereas, With a scaffold height of 176 feet and a scaffold length of 380 feet, Pine Mountain is one of the highest artificially-created ski jumps in the world; and Whereas, Each February, it hosts a Jump Weekend sponsored by the Pine Mountain Kiwanis Ski Club, an event that draws nearly 20,000 spectators; and Whereas, Record-setting has become a tradition there, with top ski jumpers from the United States, Austria, Norway, Finland, and Germany joining in that tradition; and Whereas, The spectacle of professional athletes launching themselves from a ten-story scaffold, maintaining their poise midair, and then landing in a four-block outrun is an attraction worthy of a world-class sporting venue. It is a tribute to all those who have worked to maintain Pine Mountain through the years that it has attained its current status; now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate, That we hereby recognize the Pine Mountain Ski Jump in Dickinson County on the 75th Anniversary of its first competition; and be it further Resolved, That we offer this expression of highest tribute to the community in Iron Mountain for the vision that brought the ski jump into being, and we look forward to many more decades of its notable place in the world of competitive winter sports; and be it further Resolved, That a copy of this resolution be transmitted to the Pine Mountain Kiwanis Ski Club, the UP Sports Hall of Fame, the U.S. Ski Jumping Hall of Fame, and the Dickinson County Board of Commissioners as evidence of our highest esteem. .

Interview with Don Hurst November 12, 2001 Harvey, MI Ishpeming Ski Club Interviewer: Transcribed: March 1, 2002 INT: I’m sorry to do an interview on such a short notice. DH: No problem. I’m always happy to talk about skiing. INT: Can you state your birthdate please? DH: June 12, 1931. A long time ago. INT: Your address up here is 100 Forest Road Marquette. Your birth day? DH: I was born in St. Luke’s Hospital in Marquette. The building is still there on Hubbard Court and College. The oldest part of the hospital, it’s still there. INT: Before we get to skiing, I’d like to ask you about your years at University of Michigan. Why did you pick that particular university and your major? DH: I guess the main reason I went there is because I got an alumni scholarship to go to college and it was to the University of Michigan. Since then I’ve been very grateful that I went because I have tremendous admiration for the University of Michigan. It’s evident by my ??? down there. INT: What years did you go to the university? DH: First I graduated from John D. Pierce High School here in Marquette in 1949. Then that fall I went to the University of Michigan. I got my first degree in 1953, 4 years later. That was in physical education. The reason I was interested in physical education is I grew up with sports my whole life. My dad was a coach at Northern Michigan University and John D.
