Our apologies for being a bit slow in getting the newsletter out this month. We have been quite busy selling real estate and also making some changes to our marketing efforts to better serve you!
When we haven't been working we've been sneaking in some skiing and we've also been watching the Olympics!! We are amazed by the success of the US Athletes, particularly the Alpine Ski Team. More importantly, we are very proud of the efforts of all the local athletes. For fairly obvious reasons, the Tahoe Truckee area is a great place to grow up and live for those who aspire to success in the Winter Olympic games. This year, more than any we can remember, the locals are not only competing but having unprecedented success. At one point last week, the ladies of Lake Tahoe had brought home more medals than all but 8 countries!!
In case you haven't been following, here's what some of our locals have been up to:
Julia Mancuso (Squaw Valley) has won 2 silver medals in the women's downhill and the women's super combined. She also finished 9th in the Super Giant Slalom.
Shannon Bahrke (Tahoe City) won the bronze medal in Women's Moguls.
Hannah Teter (South Lake Tahoe) won the silver medal in Women's Half Pipe.
Nate Holland (Squaw Valley) finished 4th in Men's Snowboard Cross.
Elena Hight (South Lake Tahoe) finished 10th in Women's Half Pipe.
Stacey Cook (Truckee) finished 11th in Women's Downhill.
Marco Sullivan (Squaw Valley) finished 23rd in the Men's Super G and participated but fell in the Men's Downhill.
Errol Kerr and Dahron Rahlves (both current residents of Truckee) made the quarterfinals of the Ski Cross.
Scott Bahrke (Tahoe City) participated in the Men's Skiing Aerials.
Congratulations to all of you and your families.
