As always, spring has been a nice time around campus. In addition to studying hard, our skiers are doing all kinds of fun stuff - contra dancing, volunteering, hanging out on the quad, running up and down the Tower stairs for some reason, and more. Here are a few of our more notable happenings:
- We had a lovely end-of-season dinner at Thorne to officially close the book on the 2022-23 season, highlighted by a hilarious slide show courtesy of Ingrid and Aggie. Lots of good memories to look back on - such a fun year. Carson and Jori were named winners of the Marty Hall Award for the most outstanding skiers on the team. So nice to get everyone together one last time!
- Along with several other Bowdoin athletes, the team participated in Green Athletics Eco-Service Day - they worked in the organic gardens to restore an old bed and plant hundreds of potato plants.
- For our first ever Go U Bears Athletic Fun Challenge, Bowdoin Nordic alumni, family members, and friends rallied to raise over $11,000 for our team! Absolutely amazing. These gifts will allow us to keep athlete costs for Thanksgiving Camp low, and to travel more athletes to mid-season carnivals. It means a lot to know that we have such a dedicated community of supporters, and we're so grateful. Thanks so much to all of our supporters! This program wouldn't be possible without you.
- At Bowdoin's annual All-Sports Award Night, Jori won the Outstanding First-Year Female Athlete Award! So nice to see her recognized for her fantastic season - congratulations Jori!
Almost home - just a few days of exams left! Next up is Graduation 2023, where we'll send off our lone amazing senior Luke Bartol!
