Your kind words to me are humbling, coming from one of the best outdoor writers out there. Your analysis of Mark Elmore’s impact on the sport of snowshoeing says so much in just a few words, a trait of a true professional like you.

He was there from the very start. Snowshoeing is where it is today because of Mark’s hard work. In fact, he was one of the first people I contacted when starting Snowshoe Magazine back in 2003. I salute you, Mr. Elmore! Thank you for your contributions to the sport.

And kudos to Mark Elmore for his outstanding contributions to the sport of snowshoeing. Snowshoe racing in the U.S. would not have evolved to its prominence today without Mark Elmore’s leadership, organizational skills, and camaraderie. Wishing you relaxation in your retirement from USSSA…however, you will always be a part of that valued organization.
