I
very much enjoy figure skating and my favorite skater is Tonia
Kwiatkowski. She never gives up and arrives at
each event fully prepared. Her bid for the 1998 Olympic Team
was not successful; however, her determination not to give up
was an inspiration. Few skaters will skate so well in the face
of adversity. Tonia is now retired from amateur skating and
is greatly missed. |

Many
an hour I have spent at the Fairfax Ice Arena (more before marriage
than after). The most famous of its skaters is Michael
Weiss. He is the 1999 U.S. Gold Medalist
and World Bronze Medalist, 1998 & 1997 U.S. Silver Medalist,
1997 World Team Member, and member of the 1998 Olympic Team.
Michael trains daily at the rink. |
