nicole joraanstad 281x299 Go South King County Olympians!NICOLE JORAANSTAD is from Kent and will be a member of the women’s curling team.  She graduated from Kentridge High and has been dominating the world of curling since 2006 when she didn’t qualify for the Olympics that year.  We look forward to seeing what she can do at the Olympics this year!

Apolo JR 150x150 Go South King County Olympians!APOLO OHNO of Federal Way is poised to set a new record for the most winter Olympic medals.  He is currently tied at 5 medals with long track speed skater Eric Heiden for the most in a career for an American man, and is hoping to add at least one more this winter to tie with Bonnie Blair.  We look forward to cheering him on to meet that goal!

J.R. CELSKI, also of Federal Way, joins Apolo Ohno in the short track speed skating.  He had a bad accident in September at the Olympic trials where he cut his thigh to the bone and required surgery to fix it.  He is optimistic that he will be up to the task of winning some medals in Vancouver.  With his record of winning 5 medals at the World Championships in March, he will be one to watch at the Olympics.

All of us at AAA Heating & Air Conditioning wish these Olympians the best of luck in Vancouver and look forward to watching them win many medals in the next few weeks!
