Thanks for posting this - I used to skate at that competition and it was always a wonderful experience.
How many years has this competition been running?
-
over 30 years. It was one of the very first ISI competitions and was started by Robert Kelton who was president of ISI (back when it was ISIA) from 1973-1975.

I skated in Lake Placid in the early-to-mid 1980's. I got my first (of two) speeding tickets in Tuxedo, NY. (Warning: speed trap) We were 6-8 young women sharing one hotel room. The mischief that many young adults could get into was amazing; nothing bad, but boy were we adventurous!
I was in LP earlier this year for the USFSA Synchro Sectionals and it brought back so many wonderful memories. However, I've decided that renting a house is much better than splitting a hotel room. We had a beautiful, luxurious rental house for less than what the hotel rooms would have cost.
