Fundraising for MWV Ski Team

As a member of the team you are part of the Mt. Washington Valley Ski Team and you become a part of our family and a part of the community whether you live here or not.  Over the years we have been building a strong relationship to the community.  The relationship comes from our need for the community to donate their services and products to our various fundraisers.  Our main goal with these fundraisers is to keep our costs as low as possible, so regardless of external status anyone interested in joining our program can have that opportunity.  Regardless of your desire to participate in the fundraisers, it is a necessity that the team works together, and everyone does their share.  This is simply another thing to benefit the athletes and their families, so we appreciate the willingness of everyone to take an active role.  The hardest part of these fundraisers comes down to securing items for auctions and prizes for raffles, a rather large part for one person to do, however when done together it can be done with ease.

FUNDRAISING COMMITMENT

Due to the fact that a significant portion of our income is derived from fund raising active parental participation is essential for the successful implementation of the program. Each family is required to participate in all of the fundraising events.  You will find these events fun and exciting to work on, and they bring the team together in a setting away from the mountain.  We are always interested in new ideas to improve our fundraising and encourage your suggestions. 

Participation by all families is required in order to have successful fundraisers.  Each family is required to be involved in putting on all fundraisers. If you are interested in being the chair or co-chair of a committee for one of these events please indicate that on the sign ups. Once committees are formed specific tasks will be assigned to each parent in the program. Each family’s contribution to each of these events is valued at $600. A $600 donation per event may be made to MWV in lieu of each of these commitments.
