The Fourth Annual Ski

at Maple Lanes Archery and Ski Center in Skandia,
raised more than $6,000.
Sponsored by
the Upper Michigan
Heart Institute at Marquette General Health
System, Bell Medical, Upper
Michigan Cardiovascular Associates and Great Lakes Vascular,
the event serves as a fund-raiser to purchase heart monitors
for local
schools in an effort to educate youth about the importance of
regular exercise and a healthy diet.
The top fund-raisers
include, from
