Meet and Greet U.S. Ski Team Athletes at the Center of Excellence Dedication, July 17

Ever wonder how the U.S. Ski Team and Snowboarding athletes train? Head to Park City on July 17 and find out. At noon, the public is welcome to attend the dedication of the Center of Excellence, the amazingly decked out new training center for Team members.

Enjoy tours of the 85,000 sq. ft. center, which features an unprecedented athlete training area, sports science lab and a sports medicine rehab facility. Of course, national team athletes will be on hand to speak with the public and sign autographs. (As of yet, their names are under wraps, so for you, it will be a nice surprise.)

The dedication ceremony will take place outside the Center of Excellence (which is located just east of Park City in Quinn's Junction at the intersection of U.S. 40 and Utah 248) from 12:00-12:30 p.m. Public tours of the Center will follow and run until 3:00 p.m. Parking is slightly limited, so carpooling is encouraged.
