On Wednesday, Nordic combined and ski jumping clubs from Alaska to New Hampshire had come to Park City for the 20th annual Jindro Mayer Springer Tournee – a weeklong Nordic combined and ski jumping competition at the Utah Olympic Park. “Tonight is also a good opportunity, we found, to have our annual physical fundraiser with our community, because otherwise we’re just not around,” he said. “Everyone’s in Europe or a different part of the country (the rest of the time).” So on Wednesday, national team athletes dressed in official polos TANZI PROPST/PARK RECORD Attendees of the USA Nordic Summer Soiree peruse silent auction items during the event at Jeremy Ranch Golf and Country Club Wednesday evening.

Demong said the team was hoping to raise $600,000 for the upcoming summer Grand Prix series and training season, which would start less than two weeks after the fundraiser. But first, the national teams would compete in the Springer Tournee and the National Championships on Friday, Saturday and Sunday at the Utah Olympic Park. Jasper Good, a Nordic combined athlete originally from Steamboat Springs, Colorado, who has lived in Park City since 2015, said the nationals are “mainly for bragging rights,” though it helps prepare for the upcoming summer season.
