Soundoff for July 25
The city just approved another $260,000 for the ski jump. I wonder if the paper could review the cost of the ski jump and the number of athletes who are expected to use these jumps to determine the cost per athlete.

Maybe Steamboat Springs should be renamed "Ski Jump Town USA."
