  • Ancient Skiers Book 2014
    Second Edition - 2014 INTRODUCTION When I was asked if I would write the history of the Ancient Skiers, I was excited and willing. My husband, Jim, and I were a part of those early skiers during those memorable times. We had “been there and done that” and it was time to put it down on paper for future generations to enjoy. Yes, we were a part of The Ancient Skiers and it is a privilege to be able to tell you about them and the way things were. Life was different - and it was good! I met Jim on my first ski trip on the Milwaukee Ski Train to the Ski Bowl in 1938. He sat across the aisle and had the Sunday funnies - I had the cupcakes - we made a bond and he taught me to ski. We were married the next year. Jim became Certified as a ski instructor at the second certification exam put on by the Pacific Northwest Ski Association (PNSA) in 1940, at the Ski Bowl. I took the exam the next year at Paradise in 1941, to become the first woman in the United States to become a Certified Ski Instructor. Skiing has been my life, from teaching students, running a ski school, training instructors, and most of all being the Executive Secretary for the Pacific Northwest Ski Instructors Association (PNSIA) for over 16 years. I ran their Symposiums for 26 years, giving me the opportunity to work with many fine skiers from different regions as well as ski areas. Jim and I helped organize the PNSIA and served on their board for nearly 30 years.

Trykk: «En Ret for Redaktørene til at hemmeligholde sine Forfatteres Navne forudsætter en stram Organisation inden Journaliststanden, Oprettelse af faste Æresdomstole og en høit udviklet Sans for den journalistiske Ære hos alle Medlemmer af Standen. Skal man vente med en Lovforandring, til alle disse Forudsætninger er opfyldt, vil der rinde meget Vand i Sjøen før Loven forandres.» T.D. i Aftenposten 27.9.1908. 4 Forord Kildevern - betyr det at journalister alltid skal hemmeligholde og skjule sine kilder?
