Anne Gini, a founder of the BNC, passed away peacefully at her home on Saturday, December 11, 2021. She was an integral part of the Nordic community as a teacher, competitive master skier, and friend.
Her parting advice to all is “when in doubt, use extra blue”.
Norwegian by birth, Anne embodied the very best of her homeland’s love of skiing. She shared that love with her community and passed it on through her family.
On the worst days, Anne would ski a for a reasonable amount of time and calmly remark, “that was really bad day.” On the best days, she would ski to her fill and happily remark, “that was a great day.” Either way, she loved skiing unconditionally.
The BNC continues to reserve a special grant fund named for Anne. It has only been used once and to help fund Boulder’s first female skier to reach the World Cup, Kelsey Phinney during the 2018-2019 season.
