Margot Frost, a fifth grade student at Tunbridge Central School, is an avid skier and loves to race. Here’s what Margot says: “I have been skiing for six years now, since I was four. I learned to ski at Quechee Ski Area. I skied there for one year, and then at Pico for two years. Currently, I ski at Mad River Glen and have for the past three years. Skiing brings me great joy, and I hope to continue skiing as long as I can.”
Thrill on the Hill
By Margot Frost
Grade Five, Tunbridge Central School
The wind nipped my face
as I flew down the hill.
I’m skiing, I’m skiing!
What a thrill!
My parallel skis glided through the snow,
making deep tracks in the powder.
Go! Go! Go!
I raced past fellow skiers, laughing with glee.
Faster! Faster!
Ski, ski, ski!
I flew by a skier, and when I saw her face,
I knew I had found my competition and we started to race.
We ripped down the hill, the whole time side by side,
and when we reached the bottom together, I realized we had tied.
