You may sometimes see a banner at the top of the page that says something like "Five of your friends think you're stupid!" This is tremendously offensive to your webmaster, and he has inquired about how to eliminate it from displaying. If that can't be done, we'll find a different way to create and display slide shows. * SkiLibrary.com, Ingrid Wicken, Norco CA * Carl Darovich collection, Sheboygan WI (contact info pending) * Bob Immens collection, Fox River Grove IL view slide show Contact Scott Immens: skijump3 (at) comcast.net * John Balfanz family collection, Osseo MN view slide show Contact Roberta Gwen Johnson: billandgwen (at) webtv.net * Wayne Martin collection, Plymouth MN view slideshow Contact Wayne Martin: wayne (at) martinphotomedia.com Books & Publications (available from organization listed next to title) * Midwest Skiing: A Glance Back; John Pontti & Ken Luostari - National Ski Hall of Fame * On Wings of Wood; Wally Wakefield & Tom Harrington - St Paul Ski Club * Sky Crashers; Fred Johnson - Goodhue County Historical Society * The History of Ski Jumping; Tim Ashburner - Amazon.com and various booksellers Links of Interest (major organization links at right, click logo to visit site ... more on our History page)
