Volunteers prepare for 100th Snowflake Ski Jump in Westby WI

There's just one more week for volunteers to prepare for the 100th Snowflake Ski Jump. The centennial competition starts on the evening of February 3rd and runs into the 4th. Crews are working to get the area set up for 3,000 people a day to watch as jumpers conquer the ski jump. One of the lead organizers, Scott Yttri, has a hand in keeping this annual tradition going since 1922. "It's our heritage.
