Tara Meleen

 
Tara is a freshman at L’Anse High School. An honor student, she is also a member of the high school "A" skating team and Northern Ice, the Copper Country synchronized skating team. Northern Ice placed first in the 2007 State Games of America in Colorado Springs, the first time any of the skaters had competed in the national event. Tara had previously endured two surgeries that stymied her rigorous training schedule. Her recovery, physical therapy and dedication enabled her to compete so successfully in Colorado. She is also a student council member, on the track team and is a volunteer instructor for Basic Skills skaters.

Synchronized skating is Tara’s source of strength. She’s learned teamwork and how to accomplish goals and dreams. With her warm smile and friendly personality, she’s also developed a lot of new friends. Tara is an extraordinary CC Teen and a shining example for other students.
