Olympic Ski Jump Dreams Take Flight Near Chicago
Newsy
The Norge Ski Club in Illinois has been a home for ski jumping since 1905 and helped produce three athletes competing in the Beijing Winter Olympics.
Ski jumpers as young as 4 years old train and compete on a hill in suburban Chicago.
Dozens of girls and boys train two nights a week at the Norge Ski Club about 40 miles northwest of the city, and it's not far-fetched to suggest one or more of these young jumpers may land in the Olympics someday.
