The year he ran this team, they had the opportunity to go to the World, in Pocatello, ID. The reason he started was the love of horses and the fun of racing. This will be another fun year and hope that many people will join in next time. The horses he runs this year are Bits of Chily, and Brown Gelding and Star Te Deck, a sorrel horse. Bits of Chily runs on the right and Star Te Deck runs on the left It has also been fun for the whole family.

The Fifth Annual Express is a national fundraising event that takes place at 27 ski resorts around the country, with proceeds dedicated to rehabilitating individuals with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and other "physically challenging" diseases. Holly Flanders, former Olympian and Director of Skiing at Park City Ski Area, is the honorary chairman of the event, which is expected to attract a number of celebrities and ski personalities. Jimmie Heuga, who won a bronze medal in the 1964 Olympics, was diagnosed with MS at age 26. After six years of inactivity, he decided to get his life back on track through a personal program of cardiovascular, muscle strengthening and stretching exer cises. This new approach improved his health and fitness and restored his emotional spirit, and became the foundation for the Heuga Center's program for others with MS. Jimmie will also be on hand for the Park City Ski Area Race. Co-eteams of three skiers each complete in the event, which includes a morning marathon of "Skiing the Mountain For Jimmie," and an afternoon dual slalom race. The winning team is chosen on the basis of funds raised and for excelling in the skiing events, and will travel to Vail, CO for the April 9 Express finals. All entered teams are invited to participate in a ski clinic held Feb. 2 at Park City Ski Area. The clinic will be conducted by Ms. Flanders and other former members of the United States Olympic Team. The goal of the Mazda Ski Express nationally is to raise $1 million for the Jimmie Heuga Center, d fund-raisin- g, 4-- which was founded in 1984 by Jimmie and a group of concerned medical, corporate and civic leaders. The nonprofit, scientific research organization is dedicated to enhancing the quality of life for people with MS. Mazda is the national title sponsor, and the Utah Mazda dealers will be offering free test drives of selected 1990 drive models right at the Park City Ski Area. Mazda will donate $5 to the Jimmie four-whe- el Heuga Center for every vehicle driven during the test drive program at Park City's Ski Express.
