Summer Check In


Adrienne Biglow, Junior from Yakima, WA.

Wow, I can’t believe we are already nearing the end of May which means a month of summer break has already gone by. I can already tell that the last two months are going to fly by, and before we know it the team will be back in Billings starting preseason. This isn’t such a bad thought though seeing as I already miss all the girls A LOT!
The first week I was back in my hometown of Yakima Washington I got to enjoy being lazy and spending time in the sunshine (it was nearly eighty degrees all week). However, as of last Saturday I ventured back to reality when I started working. This summer for my second year I’m working at the local par three golf course in the pro shop. I can hardly complain though because I seem to spend most of my time there reading and chatting with the customers. It is the perfect job for me, when I’m not having disagreements with the cash register. Other than work, I have been enjoying spending time at home with my parents, and of course my adorable dog Mandy. I never quite realize how much I miss being around my house throughout the year until I come back home and it feels like I’ve left. I’ve also had a lot of fun catching up with my friends from high school and going on a few road trips.
Summer is the perfect getaway from the stress of the school year, where I feel like I can regroup and mentally and physically prepare myself for next fall, and most especially next season. I know my teammates are all off doing the same and getting ready for when we see each other again in August. Keep working hard on the summer workouts ladies and I hope everyone is having a great summer 

Summer Check In


Jaucelyn Richter, Junior from Billings, MT.

Hello everybody!!

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer break so far. I know I was definitely loving the lack of school and not having to get up bright and early to use my brain in the morning. I officially started SUMMER SCHOOL with Courtney Harvey in Bozeman. We're taking organic chemistry and we just love going to school in the summer so much. Hehe hopefully we survive this girls. ;)

"Every day do something that will inch you closer to a better tomorrow." -Doug Firebaugh. This quote is definitely something to keep in mind as we survive through the summer work outs. I know working out in the summer heat, when we could be out enjoying the nice weather, is quite grueling but keep up the hard work, it always pays off in the end.

To the incoming freshman...Congrats on graduation!! Can't wait for you ladies to become a part of the team!

Soak up the sunshine, work hard, make a little summer money, and just enjoy life. Excited to see you all in the fall!!
