Freeride Ski and Snowboard Team
The Freeride Team needs your help!

We finished up our second year as a team this winter and things are off to a great start! We are growing fast with our numbers nearly doubling over the last year and working on traveling to more Freeride Competitions each year. This winter brought loads of excitement with team members making it to finals in every competition we entered in and the first WWU Freeride 1st place! In case that wasn't clear enough, we are STOKED to make a name for ourselves in the world of freeskiing, and we need your help. Surprisingly enough, the biggest challenge in all this is not ripping down steep chutes, flying off huge cliffs, or spinning and flipping at the bottom of the run, the real challenge is scraping together funds to cover the additional travel costs and competition dues on top of the costs of an already expensive sport. That's where you come in! During this event every dollar donated to this fundraiser will go straight into the team's account. The university will also be matching a certain percentage of donations, so this is a wonderful opportunity to help the Western Freeride Team grow into something amazing. Your donations help our competitors focus on their skills on the mountain, instead of worrying about if they will be able to afford to enter in that next competition. So we can do things like this:

And spend next winter ending up here:
