Do you know what Skijoring is?  Maybe you’re like most of us here at SFJH—clueless!  But we’re in luck because one of our teachers is a Skijoring enthusiast—Ms. Megan Lynn.

Skijoring is a Norwegian word meaning “ski driving.”  Believe it or not, it’s a competitive sport!  All you need to participate is a pair of skis, a towrope of some sort, and a vehicle; be it horse, dog, or motorized.  For hundreds of years, the Sami people of northern Scandinavia used reindeer.

Check out this great article from the Daily Herald.  It tells all about our very own Ms. Lynn.
