The Fis Nordic World Ski Championships 2007 for the First Time in Asia

The FIS Nordic World Ski Championships 2007 began on February 22, 2007 and will run through March 4 in Sapporo, Japan. Being held in this city makes three marks in the books; the first one is that this is the third time that these championships are held outside of Europe, being the previous two Placid, New York, USA and Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. The second one, this city has hosted this kind of championships only one time before, in the 1972 Winter Olympics. And the third one is that this is the first year that it will happen in Asia.

There are more than 480 athletes representing 49 nations competing in Sapporo, accompanied by at least the same number of officials. Currently, 125 ladies from 33 nations and 197 men from 47 nations are registered to compete in cross-country events, and approximately 68 athletes from 17 nations will participate in the Nordic combined events, and 93 athletes from 21 nations in ski jumping. At least 1150 international media representatives are on-site to report as a total of 54 medals will be awarded in 18 events.

The hope of staging the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships in Sapporo, Japan were to promote the development of the FIS Nordic disciplines throughout Asia, especially in China and Korea. The Japanese already have long traditions in ski jumping but it would be nice to make them equally excited about cross-country.

Another mark that I did not mention before is that this will be the first time that cross-country championship competitions are held indoors, as well as the first time cross-country title events are held at night.

2007 Park City Arts Festival, It?s Time to Book your Vacation Condo Rental

This year’s 38th Annual Park City Kimball Arts Festival in Park City / Deer Valley will be held August 4 & 5, 2007.

The Arts Festival is the longest running festival of its kind in the West. Park City, sitting at 7,000 feet elevation above sea level, it a great place to be. Not only is this a great spot for the adults, but also it’s a wonderful time for children with face painting and other fun filled activities.

The festival showcases 220 artists including potters, painters, jewelry designers and more! The artwork is different every year, and you don’t want to miss it! We have attended the Park City Arts Festival for many years, and it’s always an outstanding experience. From the distinctive art, the music, and not to mention the great food, it makes Park City Utah in August the perfect place to be.

Enjoy live music, all kinds of delicious food from Greek to gourmet burgers, Utah’s Castle Creek wines, ice cold Budweiser beer and a full day of fun.

Let me take a moment and recommend the Park City Gallery Stroll – Friday, August 3, from 6:00 – 9:00 pm. The Park City Gallery Stroll is held on Friday evening! Get ready for fine art, hors d’oeuvres, and artists on hand at more than 20 galleries in Park City!

Pick up your map/ticket at the Kimball Arts Center for $5 and get ready for an evening of gallery strolling, live jazz and lots of fun!
