Okay… so the Star is reporting (from the AP) that Kansas City and Greensboro NC are the two finalists for the 2011 U.S. Figure Skating Championships. This report comes from the Greensboro News & Record, which also says that Greensboro officials are showing the skating bigwigs around that town. Can we safely conclude from this information that Kansas City officials had no idea they were in the running for this?
I don’t know about whether city officials know anything or not, but the local skating club, Kansas City Figure Skating Club, knew the 2011 USFSC officials were here Sunday as they hosted them for breakfast and assisted their tour of the Sprint Center and downtown hotels. Numerous members of the local club skated at Crown Center while the USFSC officials had breakfast and watched on Sunday.
Cool — hope you guys get it.
