• Monday-What'sUP April 30 - 09:05 am

Calumet Copper Kings don't let a little snow on their track field stop them from practicing. These guys broke out the snowshoes and ran some competitions regardless of the snow and puddles. Sure looks like they were having fun doing it, too.

In the last shot, High School Principal, George Twardzik was there to hand out awards at the end. I don't think it's the kind of award that will go in the school trophy case though, since it looks like it would melt right away, so it's a good thing Dorothy Jamison was there to preserve the event in pictures.

Let's hope with the warm temperatures we've had over the weekend, that this is the last of the snow, so that all the area high school track teams can get to practicing on their track again. With one day left for the month, join me in saying... Goodbye April "snow" showers... hello May flowers!

Too funny!

What a great way to have fun with our late Spring!

The UP is really something!!! I'd like to see what that snowbank from last weekend looks like after the warm weather. I have a feeling that it won't take long to melt.

Just super to see these photos! Happy spring!

Bet there were a lot of sniffles after that excursion! :o)
Atta boy(s)!!

PRICELESS...........

That's Yooper team spirit! I don't know if I could walk on snowshoes let alone run with them on! Seems there was a picture featured here on Pasty, an older picture, of College age guys snowshoe racing.

Now that's how to work on a suntan.

Found that old picture of the snowshoe racers, Feb 12, 2006. Picture taken at the 1963 Winter Carnival.

SISU! Great pics!

would like to wish my sweetie a happy birthday today... happy birthday sweetie.;O)

That's AWESOME!
