LARCH HILLS NORDIC SOCIETY ANNUAL NORDIQ FUNDRAISER
HELP RAISE A SKIER – SUPPORT THE YOUTH PROGRAMS
In 2025 our goal is to raise $25,000 that will benefit the youth programs.
The Larch Hills Nordic Society’s members represent all age groups. And over the years, skiing kids become young adults, who then ski with children of their own and someday, they might even take their grandchildren out for their first trip to the hill. No matter if you ski for fitness, racing or just the fun of it – it all starts with fundamental ski skills.
At the Larch Hills Nordic Society (LHNS) we take great pride in the youth programs that we offer to our community and membership. The LHNS supports the Junior Race Team / Recreation Program, Bunnyrabbits / Jackrabbits and a School Ski Program. The goal: kids enjoying time out in the snow, developing ski skills, socializing with peers and developing confidence. These youth programs take an incredible amount of volunteer hours, as well as other resources to keep them running. At the LHNS we believe that supporting youth is essential for a strong community. Our goal for this year’s Nordiq Canada / Cross Country BC Annual Club Fundraiser is to raise $25,000 to keep these programs up and running for many years into the future. The funds raised during this fundraising drive will go directly to the youth programs for equipment, supplies, coach training courses, coach clothing, programs coordination and ski team support.
The LHNS is always grateful to our generous supporters, members and visitors. If you are able to contribute to this fundraiser you will receive a charitable tax receipt for your donation.
