Thank you to the Manistee Community Foundation

Our friends at Manistee Community Foundation have generously donated funds that are supporting our Nordic Rocks programming for Kennedy Elementary School, Bear Lake Elementary School, and Betsie Valley Elementary School.

Our Nordic Rocks program will reach over 500 kids this season, giving them 4 completely free cross country sessions with equipment and instruction. This wouldn't be possible without the gifts from our donors!

The Manistee County Community Foundation is the only entity serving Manistee County that impacts all aspects of life: youth, education, human services, the arts, environment, community development and more.

Thank you to the PSIA/AASI-Central Education Foundation!

Special thanks to the PSIA/AASI-Central Education Foundation (CEF) for supporting our Nordic Rocks Program.

The CEF provided funds for 78 grade 5th grade students in Manistee, MI, to receive PSIA-AASI certified nordic instruction at their school over a series of four sessions. This program is targeted at providing access to cross country skiing without barriers (no cost to the students), and at growing inclusion in the sport.

Little River Band Outreach: The Central Education Foundation also provided funds for children from the the Little River Band of Ottawa Indians to come to Crystal Mountain two times to provide PSIA-AASI certified nordic instruction at no cost. Nine students will get to receive the benefits of this program.
