With a handicap differential of (-1), the team from Joe's pulled off a great win!
Joe's sponsors all the prizes for the top ten teams every year, so the team graciously decided to do a spontaneous auction for the first place prizes (K2 snowboards and skis, including bindings) which raised an additional $1500-$2000 for our beneficiaries!
Complete race results will be posted as soon as possible.
