According to the Milano Cortina Olympic Schedule, what is Canada doing today? Well where does one start after a busy weekend including a bronze medal to get on the board. Congrats to Valérie Maltais's long-track speed skating bronze. Today, right now, we have Megan Oldham as a gold medal contender in freestyle skiing - Run three started at 8:25 this morning. and later, more medal chances on the oval with 1000m speed skating. I like Short Track speed skating. It’s like wrestling, but on ice! And of course, headline news, the men's hockey team arrived in Italy on Sunday and to no surprise, Sidney Crosby was named captain. Go Canada Go!
Happy Staff Appreciation Birchwood Staff - Give yourselves a pat on the back staff. You are awesome. And kiddos, no messing around this week. It’s Staff appreciation week.
