Twelve MNC skiers and their faithful parents made the trip down to Chittenden for this year’s Mt. Top Paintball Race. This is a kid’s biathlon race where skiers ski a loop, then come into a range and shoot five shots at a target with a paintball rifle. SPLAT! The older you are, the more loops you get to ski and the more times you get to visit the range and shoot. In this event, you get 10 seconds deducted from your time for every shot you hit! FUN!
Brady in the Range. Brady hit 4 targets and skied very fast, but another kid skied fast and hit 5 shots and when the times computed, Brady had missed first place by one tenth of a second! THAT’s Biathlon for you!
These three speedy gals swept the 1/2 podium! (Don’t you love the socks?!)
Crosby Waite and his sister Lilly both pulled a double on their first weekend of racing and skied the Range Ramble and Paintball! These two are fast AND tough!
The 5/6 girls did remarkably well with Virginia leading the crew, placing first with ten hits!
Carl Priganc and Taylor Carlson skied the boys 5/6 race and shot really well, both hitting ten shots and finishing well in a very competitive field. Biathlon could be in their futures!
More photos and results to be posted soon!
