How
did this all begin?
A few Muskegon people conceived the idea of building a luge and bobsled run that would serve as an Olympic training site. Energies were focused on the luge run. The idea grew and gained community support and political support from local legislators, who worked toward making state funding available for the construction and operation of the luge. By 1984, community support grew into a love affair with the luge, where countless hours of labor, construction materials, and equipment were donated to see the project completed. Since
it's completion, the track has produced
one Olympic athlete, Mark
Grimmette, 1998 Bronze Medal
and 2002 Silver Medal winner.
As our youth luge program grows,
we hope to produce more Olympic
athletes in the future.
The luge attracts participants and spectators from all over the
country and has certainly sparked that Olympic spirit in Muskegon County and surrounding areas. Being one of only four tracks in the United States along with our learn to slide program, allows our track the title "the most publicly accessible luge track in North America".
