On Location Tour Continues

Next Stop for the Tour was Tivoli Gardens in Lindon Michigan for the Rip Fest Collegiate Championships. The man-made site was built by a Danish gentleman named Paul Boel who named this beautiful site after the famous Tivoli Gardens in Copenhagen, Paul has done an amazing job of creating a beautiful landscape around his lake.



The Rip Fest event is now in it's 3rd year at Tivoli Garden and plays host to 9 of the Michigan College Teams, 100 College kids at an event is pretty crazy I can tell you, but this is an amazing part of the sport in the US that really gets kids fired up and builds a sense of belonging and Team work.



We awoke to very heavy rain on Saturday morning, the air temp was pretty cool but the atmosphere under the Grand Valley Ski Team tent was bubbling!


They had plenty of Cider and Donuts to keep them happy!


The boys were keeping warm around the BBQ at Lunchtime.



The weather improved throughout the day and Sunday was better with plenty of sunshine. I have to say that the blazing sun did not help the blazing hangover, man these college kids know how to have a party in evening. All the drinking games, flip cup, beer pong and the shot ski were all in play last night. I don't want to see another beer for a while.
