An Appeal to David Wise #Olympics #Skiing

Congratulation to David Wise, the first Olympic Gold Medalist in the Skiing Half-Pipe competition. David, we met at Park City just before you left for Sochi. You were so nice and unassuming. I think what you represent as an athlete, husband, and dad is so valuable. Please come on my tweet chat – #DadChat – for just one hour some Thursday evening and let’s inspire others together…email me at: [email protected].
