With the commencement of the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games, Midas Gold is pleased to announce its sponsorship of downhill skier and Idaho native, Erik Fisher.
“We are proud supporters of Erik and the U.S. Olympic team in their quest for gold at Sochi,” said Anne Labelle, a vice president of Midas Gold. “At Midas we believe it is important to support our local community, and we hope that our contribution to Erik’s journey will help him realize his Olympic dream.”
Fisher, known to many as “Fish”, is a World Cup alpine ski racer with the United States Ski Team. He is originally from Middleton, Idaho, graduated from Eagle High School and began his ski racing career at the age of seven on the slopes at Bogus Basin, near Boise.
Fisher will be hitting the slopes in the next few days, competing in the men’s Downhill Slalom and Super G, as competition in Sochi gets underway.
The Company would like to wish Erik the best wishes as he goes “Fishin’ for Gold” in Sochi.
