Congratulations to Kimberley’s Molly Miller who was the top Junior at the U.S. National Championships in Houghton, Michigan this past week.
Miller, who is currently attending Northern Michigan University (NMU), got her start at the Kimberley Nordic Club and races for the Black Jack Cross Country Ski Club.
Cross Country Skiing has taken Miller many places during her career, including the World Junior Championships in Finland in 2019, as well as the Canada Winter Games. She was also recently received the BC Athlete Excellence Award for Cross Country Skiing.
Miller is well known in the Kimberley community not only for her achievements in athletics, but also for her philanthropy. She recently organized a charity run that resulted in 55 runners and walkers gathering to take part in a 5K/10K run/walk event to raise funds for an organization called Femme International as well as to benefit women who use services at the Cranbrook Women’s Resource Centre. $900 was raised. $700 was be donated to Femme International and the $200 will be donated to the Cranbrook’s Women’s Resource Centre.
