    The SCSSA is indebted to The LA84 Foundation of Los Angeles (Formerly the Amateur Athletic Foundation).  We would most likely be non-existent, and Rusty Smith, Maria Garcia, and JR Celski would most likely not have become members of the U.S. Olympic Short Track Speed Skating Team, 
    were it not for the gracious assistance of 
    The LA84 Foundation.
    Thank You!
