​2024 Booster Club Donations 
To ensure that we have adequate funding for the 2024 fall XC season the coaching staff is asking that each family on the team make a donation of $100 to our XC Booster club this fall. Our estimated cost to run the program this season is approximately an additional $7000 in addition to our collected registration fees. The additional $7000 covers such necessities as meet entry fees ($300-$500 per meet), the cost of additional assistant coaches ($3500), and our team licensed massage therapist (Coach Boele, $5000) to be at practice on Tuesday's from August through November. 

If families are not able to donate $100, then we ask you to donate what you can. And of course if any would like to donate above $100 it is greatly appreciated.
