Caroline meets an Olympian

Our family recently took a short trip up to Rogers to support the Northwest Arkansas Run for a Child. Appearing at the event was Apolo Anton Ohno, the Team U. S. A. speed skater who won a gold and silver medal at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City and a gold medal and two bronze medals at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin. Apolo was happy to meet Caroline, sign a Wheaties box cover for her to appreciate in the future, and provide the picture below for our album. I think the woman behind him is jealous! The Springdale Morning News ran an article on Ohno's visit that mentions Caroline; you can read it by clicking here: http://www.nwaonline.net/articles/2006/09/05/sports/0905ohno.txt
