Hard Work Pays Off

Just wanted to let everyone know that we surpassed the men's goal of $35,000 and we had a phenomenal 10.5% participation rate. The women's team was shy of the goal, but they did have an 11.5% participation rate. These blow away any old records we once had. This devotion to the team reveals a renewed interest in the Brown Ski Team. As you think about the coming year, know that we will be having a banquet in early February, hopefully in conjunction with a ski race. It would be great to see everyone there. Please check back here for more details!

Thank you to everyone who has put forth support for the team in any way in the past year. We are creating an environment in which lifelong friendships are forged. Go Brown Skiing.

The Finish Line Approaches

The fiscal year ends today. Consider giving as we close in on our 10% participation goal for both teams and we are well within the reach of the men's team $35,000 goal.

Almost There

We have had an unprecedented level of support for Brown Skiing in the past few weeks. The Men's Team is just $2,000 short of its $35,000 goal. We are 8 skiers short of our 10% participation level goal and 16 skiers short of doubling our participation from last year. We still need $17,000 on the women's team side and are looking for any help we can get. Thanks for your support!
