Fifth Ski Jumpers Reunion this weekend
ISHPEMING -- It may not be snowing yet, but the Ishpeming Ski Club and U.S. Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame is kicking off the season with a celebration.
They're hosting their fifth Ski Jumpers Reunion this weekend. Ski jumpers from all over the country will attend the event beginning Friday, including celebrated Olympians Gene Kotlarek, Coy Hill, and Rudy Maki.
"They have a lot of stories they like to tell; watching people reconnect that they haven't seen in years. That's a lot of fun, we really enjoy that," said Ski Hall President, Tom West.
The reunion will kick off with a barbeque and reception on Friday, a golf outing on Saturday, and wrap up with the Ishpeming Ski Club's Junior Tournament on Sunday.
