2018 Beast World Cup
On November 23rd-25th, Killington hosted their 3rd FIS Women's World Cup. Pico athletes were not only there as spectators watching the some of the best female skiers in the world, they also had the opportunity to participate in numerous activities during this prestigious international event. Here are just a few of the highlights...
Pico & KSC U12's & U14's got a chance to welcome Mikaela Shiffrin to Killington Mountain this week while attending the KMS Thanksgiving BOOST Camp!!
Several PSC athletes participated in the bib draw the night before the World Cup, a presentation where the top 15 racers received their racing order/bibs. This was the first of many events, kicking off World Cup Weekend.
PSC's Vera Martin (U19) and Olivia Burchell (U14) had the unique opportunity to interview World Cup racers, including Mikaela Shiffrin, at the Killington Cup Press Conference held on the eve of the event.
Nearly 900 VARA parade participants (including close to 100 from the Pico program) had the honor of of being led into the race village by the 1980 US Olympic Alpine Race Team members during the opening ceremonies: Viki Fleckenstein-Woodworth, Bill Taylor, Phil, and Steve Mahre, Cindy Nelson, Andy Mill, Karl Anderson, Holly Flanders, and Abby Fisher. (Heidi Preuss and Tamara Mckinney were also on site.)
