On Friday, Feb. 11, 11 young people ages 13 – 18 loaded into the Polk County 4-H van and headed up to Cataloochee, N.C., for the West District 4-H Ski event. Five of the participants had never experienced the slopes before but caught on very quickly, as weather and conditions were great. Shown above are Trey Hill and Kaytee McCullough. (photo submitted)
