Ole Mangseth Memorial Ski Jump

Coleraine, Minnesota

With the assistance of $130,000 in funding from the MASC, the Ole Mangseth Ski Jump was outfitted with plastic mats to allow for ski jump training and competition during the non-snow months. Since this addition was completed in 1999, usership and economic impact at the facility have increased significantly. Athletes from throughout the U.S. have trained in Coleraine for extended periods of time – at formal training camps lasting as long as ten days. Both the U.S. National Ski Jump Team and the Nordic Combined Development Team trained at the facility in the past two years.

 

The jump has hosted an impressive list of present and past U.S. Olympic jumpers, including Jim Maki, Jim Denney, Jim Grahek, Brian Sanders, Mike Keuler, and Casey Colby.
