Athletes competed extremely well. Thanks go to our coaches, Meghan Henrikson and Zoe Lavoie-Lafaivre, and chaperones who worked hard to ensure our girls had a memorable and rewarding experience. Thanks also to the parents who pitched in with driving, doing hair and any other jobs that needed doing. An added bonus for the Tier 3 team was meeting Silken Laumann, a 4 time Olympic champion who talked with the girls about the hard work and joy of sport – skills she says you will use your whole life.
It was an inspiring, fun weekend for us all!
