FLORENCE, WI (WTAQ) – A local school holds a pep rally for an alumni who is competing in this month’s Olympic games.
Florence High School’s Wednesday event honored Ski Jumper Nita Englund, who graduated in 2010.
While she wasn’t there, her mother Julia was.
“I was not expecting it to be such a big thing, and it was amazing actually. I didn’t really think, I thought it would be like 20 minutes and we’d be done but the turnout, the enthusiasm, and the preparation that went into it was great.”
The South Korean games are Englund’s first.
