Sports NZ’s Adam Dooney thanked the sponsors of the 2013
Junior Nationals without whom the week’s events would not
have been possible. He also thanked the events crew at
Cardrona Alpine Resort who work hard behind the scenes,
often beginning their working day at 4am, to ensure the
smooth running of competition.
Attendees of the Junior
Nationals prize giving ceremony also had the opportunity to
win spot prizes including skis and snowboards. Jack Jeffs
was the lucky winner of a pair of Smith goggles in the
‘Place it, post it, shoot it’ Facebook and Instagram
competition. Entrants were asked to take a photo of
themselves holding a 2013 Junior Nationals poster in the
most interesting place possible.
The prize giving ceremony closed with a video of the official NZ Olympic song performed by Hollie Smith and the Royal New Zealand Navy Band.
