HOME

The Independence Race Team is a truly non-profit organization. We have 13 members ranging from 6 - 17 years of age. All of the children are from blue collar families who otherwise could not afford to be involved with ski racing. Members are responsible for lift tickets/season’s passes, ski gear, USSA membership and race entry fees. There are no charges for coaching, use of equipment or insurance. The original six families involved have become a close-knit support group, which generously volunteers time to team activities year-round.

Ullr Pray for Snow Party		Ullr, great huntsman and master of the bow, Sif's son and Snowshoe-Aesir, We ask you O Glory of Winter to join with us on this dark night, For the frost is thick and the cold is chilling to the bone. O mighty shield-god, fair of face and fight, As the darkness covers the fields and the folk, We pray that you share your strength with us, That your skiff should shield us from harm, And that your shining light should fill the hall and the folk again. Skadhi
	Thanks to the Demko family for the awesome pray for snow party at their home with good friends, food, bonfire, and fireworks. May Sasha the downhill dummy's sacrifice give us another epic snow year!
