The numbers of the ski camp

 My artifacts are numbers. There are green and pink bibs. They are about the size of the upper body. And they are very light. I don’t feel the weight even if I hold them and the weight of the numbers and the weight of the air are almost the same. YMCA is written in blue and white letters in the center. Below that there is a white frame, and the name is written in hiragana inside. A message is written around them.

 This is the number that my ski camp friends wrote to me. This reminds me of many memories of the ski camp and my friends, and makes me feel better even when I'm depressed. Ski camp is an event held by YMCA that 6 or 7 university students teach skiing to about 40 junior and senior high school students, and it is held in Nagano prefecture every winter and spring. In addition to skiing, we all spend five days playing cards and ice breaks. Many people meet there for the first time, but we all talk a lot and soon become friends. On the return train on the last day, we write a message to each other. I went to ski camp every year, but I couldn't go to the final year, the spring of my third year of high school. It's because of the coronavirus. Spring break ski camp for third year high school students is not just the last ski camp. The spring break ski camp is the last camp they can join and be taught skiing for third year high school students. So other people celebrate them. But I couldn't go. So I was very sad. But my senior said "If the coronavirus is settled, I want to hold a ski camp！" 

I was glad and said "I want to go to it！ I'm looking forward to it. " Last year, the coronavirus was not settled. So it was not held. But this year, It is settling a little. So I'm looking forward to it.

 When I ski, I see people with bad manners on the ski resort. For example, some snowboarders are sitting and resting in the middle of the ski resort. I think they are annoying. It is because they are in the way of other skiers and snowboarders. I also see people gliding in areas outside the course. It is because they want to glide on fresh snow or want thrills. But the place is unmaintained. Therefore it is very dangerous. I have heard that some people were seriously injured and some died. We should call attention and stop them.

 Like my final ski camp, Various events have been cancelled because of the coronavirus and many people are sad. The economy is also stagnant. It is difficult to hold an event while taking measures against the coronavirus. However, if events are not held, the economy is becoming more and more stagnant and our stress builds up. Therefore we should take counterplans of the coronavirus such as putting on a mask for each person.
