This summer a small team of grant writers has been applying to a variety of charitable organizations. Big focus has been on our Nordic Rocks outreach program to introduce all elementary children in our area to sliding on snow with Nordic skis, then encourage them to join CCSC.  If grant money comes thru, it will help boost our entire program with equipment and staffing. More updates to come as we hear from the organizations.
