This year the Team Telemark fundraiser is joining the Nordiq Canada Nationwide Club Fundraising Campaign “Ski Local – Support Local”.  This is a fundraiser aimed at raising $250,000 for clubs to help support cross country skiing across Canada.

Our Telemark goal is to raise $10,000 through this campaign.  The $ raised will go towards enhancing our youth programming to make sure we have quality coaching and programming and we are investing in the future of our sport.

Tax Receipt:  Normally Telemark cannot offer tax receipts for donations but with this fundraiser a tax receipt will be given through Nordiq Canada. 95% of all funds raised will come back to Telemark. Take advantage of the tax receipt while you can.

Matching funds: Cross-Country BC is adding a matching funds incentive with $1,000 in matching funds on the first $2,000 raised.  In addition an anonymous donor has committed $2,000 in direct matching funds just for Telemark.  So the first $4,000 raised by Telemark is matched by an additional $3,000 putting us well on our way to our goal.  Donate now to make sure we can fully use the matching funds.

Please click here to go the donation page to find out more and to donate.  The campaign ends March 19th 2021. Please help us to reach our goal.  “Ski Local – Support Local”

The Telemark Nordic Club would like to  welcome back Red Moose Immigration Services as a Club sponsor for their second year.

Nicole and Robert Kleemaier of Red Moose Immigration Services in Kelowna are avid cross-country skiers and  have been long time, active Telemark members.  They wanted to give something back to the Club and have become a dedicated sponsor. You may have seen their banner as the backdrop for the season pass photo this year.  You will definitely see Nicole and Robert around the trails in their distinctive Red Moose outfits.

Red Moose supports foreign nationals in their efforts to get a visitor visa, study permit, work permit or permanent resident permit. They also help employers who want to hire those individuals. If you need these kinds of services please think of Nicole and Robert and Red Moose Immigration Services.
