Students from Republic Elementary and Middle School had a unique opportunity last week to try hok skiing on Boulder Pass. The ROAR program was fortunate to partner with Altai Skis, based in Curlew, for this latest winter adventure.
Students received a brief introduction to the history of hok skiing, followed by a short demonstration of its fundamentals. Then, they embarked on a winter adventure that allowed them to explore a new hobby and experience a unique winter activity.
The ROAR program would like to thank Landon Swafford and Tom Amend for generously donating their time and Nils Larsen of Altai Skis for providing the Republic students with this experience.

Congratulations to Ember Berndt and Landon Short for being selected to the All-Opponent team this season for 1B North District 6. This honor recognizes the top 11 players in the league. A ceremony recognizing the athletes was held during the playoff game on Saturday in Deer Park.
Landon had a phenomenal freshman season. He averaged 29 points per game (626 total points this season), 11 rebounds per game (232 total) and 4.6 blocks per game (99 total). He had 15 double-double performances in 21 games, two triple-doubles, and 6 game time dunks. He was a dominant and feared player throughout the league. Way to go Landon!
Ember had another fantastic season and was selected for her third consecutive year as All-Opponent. Ember took on a new role this season as she was chosen by her teammates as the Captain. Ember dominated many games with her offensive skill set and her rebounding skills which in turn resulted in many double-doubles for her throughout the basketball season. Congratulations, Ember, on another awesome year!
