A very important announcement from our Booster Club:

The CRHS Nordic Ski Team: 2022-2023 Fundraising
The 2022-23 CRHS Nordic Ski season is almost here! Each year, the CRHS Nordic Ski
Booster Club supports the CRHS Nordic Ski team in a variety of ways.
Examples include:
Providing equipment for new skiers
Providing ski wax and waxing equipment
Providing snacks and meals and select meets and winter camp
Trail passes for practices or winter camp
Lodging for select meets

The booster club needs skiers to fundraise in order to achieve the items listed above,
we can’t do it without parent support.

This year we are asking the skiers to participate in THREE fundraisers:
1. door-to-door fundraising (more details below),
2. bagging groceries at Cub Foods and
3. selling Heggie’s pizzas

More details to be provided on #2 and #3 at the parent meeting on November 14, 2022

1. First up! Nordic Afternoon Fundraiser:

What: Skiers will solicit donations directly from the Coon Rapids community, going door-
to-door in groups (with a parent chaperone), as a team activity. Parent Drivers

You can find your assigned time slot attached to this announcement.

Wear: Your Coon Rapids Nordic Gear! If you don’t have any Nordic gear, Coon Rapids
gear is great!

Remember that the funds we raise help support the team in various ways: skis, poles,
wax, waxing equipment, trail passes, a pretty sweet room for CR skiers at Giant’s
Ridge, snacks, meals, etc. THIS IS HUGE FOR THE TEAM!
Please notify Sara 763-360-8854 or Aimee 612-599-7237 if anything comes up.

Fundraising is really important! The Boosters use the fundraised money to buy equipment (wax, skis, poles, etc. trying to make sure first year skiers have skis to use), hotel rooms for ski camp, etc.
