Thanks, Friends of Liz!

On behalf of Liz Stephen, we'd like to thank all of our Friends of Liz!


Over the course of the winter, the Friends of Liz campaign raised just over $2,000 for Liz.  She is using the money to go to Sweden, where she is training with Kikkan Randall and some other World Cup Nordic skiers.

Here is an update from Liz:
Liz Stephen sports her own Friends of Liz hat on the trail.
I am now back in Utah for the training season. Our first camp is in Bend, Oregon the last 2 weeks of May and then I am most likely going to fly to Ostersund, Sweden to meet up with Kikkan and train with some of the members of the Swedish National Team. I have wanted to do something like this for a long time and Kikkan has done all the leg-work to get the trip off the ground, so the opportunity is too good to pass up. The US Ski Team is not funding this trip, but because of all the money that was raised with the Friends of Liz hats, made and donated by Skida, I am going to be able to fund this trip. I want to thank all who bought a hat and supported me this season and in past seasons.

Special thanks to Nefra Printing for printing the hangtags and Sterling Tape and Label for providing the Friends of Liz tags.
