Zoie will be showcasing her fabulous skating skills at the Northwest Invitational Skating meet in Auburn! She will dazzle you with her jumps and spins.

Her event, Tiny Tots, will probably be in the late afternoon/early evening. (This is an event for 5 and under and is really cute!Kids cry, they wave, they forget what to do . . . )

I will also skate either early Saturday morning and/or Sunday morning.

(27 years ago, this was my first skating meet. Green sequin dress, pigtails with yellow ribbons.)

Carrie skates for Gold -- Almost

For most of you . .. .

Here is a clip of my recent skating competition in Bremerton, WA. What you see is called "Loops". The goal is to trace a 2.4 meter circle. This is the first of the 2 judgings. The second judging was not caught on video, which is a good thing because I dropped my foot twice. Dropping your foot is bad, very very bad. I may have dropped my foot in the past 25 years, but never twice in one judging.

Despite the bad circumstances, I didn't get last place. I had such a high lead after the video shown . . . . I will never drop my foot again. A big wobble is better.
