November 05, 2015 – The Drive for 25 is supported by actions large and small. See the following from the Wasatch Nordic Crew: To bring a greater awareness of the National Nordic Foundation and their continued support for our Nordic athletes, Wasatch Nordic Ski Academy athletes will be on hand at Storm Cycles to wax your cross country skis.

Drop off your classic or skate skis for a basic clean and glide wax application. While you wait for your skis, come in and check out the new arrivals at Storm Cycle or grab a coffee from Park City Coffee Roasters.

Cost: A suggested donation to the National Nordic Foundation – an investment in junior skier development – in the name of WNSA would be greatly appreciated!

Skis will be accepted from 9:00am to 2:00pm.

Thank you Toko for generously supporting “Wax for the Drive” by providing Toko ski wax!!!

What’s New? Who has stepped up this week? A new map on NEW donations:

New donations are the life blood of the NNF. Here’s how last week stepped up state-by-state in new donations. Vermont grew by leaps, Minnesota continued its driving ways. Is your state on the map?

The NNF is able to support America’s developing athletes solely because of the support of our skiing community.

Without that support there is no NNF and the cost of international competition for athletes more than doubles. Organizing and staffing international race opportunities outside of U23/World Juniors falls to individual clubs and individual athletes.

Over the past 3 seasons, we have started to see the potential of our American skiing community uniting together. We have seen our culture change from one that complains about a lack of funding and opportunity to one filled with people who have stepped up to fund and create opportunity. We have seen a once sporadic American presence on the World Cup become a force, with athletes reaching the podium at every level. We know that only a few athletes will ever reach the podium but we also know that through the process of elite competition, we support a hard working group of people, undaunted by challenges, that will continue to chase successes throughout their lives.

Together we are America’s Nordic skiing community supporting America’s developing Nordic skiers.

Thank you for doing your part.
