Home Group Olympics 2010
Someone from our Home Group had a great idea (and lots of energy!) to organize a Home Group Olympics 2010 event, and what a blast it was! Competitors from around the world came together to vie for gold, silver and bronze in seven different events including luge, ski jump, downhill speed racing, moguls, figure skating pairs and two exhibition events called Wild Man Running and the Ironman. Jordan did us proud, bringing home a bronze medal in moguls! Go Team Hekman!

Wow! What a cool idea!! I wish I could have been one of the spectators waving flags (Canadian, of course!) and drinking hot chocolate. You Virginians sure know how to take advantage of the snow :-)
Was it fun? I sure would have been there if I could have!!!! And don't worry, i would have been cheering for canada and team Hekman!!
Your luge track and "ski" jumps looked like a pile of fun! I looked at a lot of the other photos and almost felt like I was there having fun with all the rest of you.
What a great idea! And probably the only coincidence of the Olympics and snow in VA in a hundred years. This is one that should be reported in a newspaper or Reader's Digest or somewhere.
