 This annual event raises money to assist physically challenged kids in North Bay and area. If you are not familiar with this program, every cent raised stays in the area and helps provide these childrent and their families with the resources to make their lives as normall as possible ... things like the purchase of specialized sports equipment or a wheelchair ... or the construction of an access ramp. It is the mission of the Rotary Club of North Bay to see that no child is disadvantaged when all it takes is a little effort to provide a better lifestyle.
- The Rotary Club has set its fund raising goal at $4,500 this year, and asks that you invite all skiers and snowshoers to participate ... and for them to bring a friend or another family member.
- Thanks to our generous sponsors, the venue, skis and snowshoe equipment are provided (to those who do not have access to equipment).
- There is no required distance to ski or snowshoe.
- Participants need only arrive prior to 9:00 am on Saturday, March 13 at North Bay Nordic Ski Club on Northshore Road. To participate a $10 donation is expected per person, or pledges collected totaling $10 or more.
- Receipts will be issued for pledge donations of $10 or more.
- A hot drink and cookie is provided to all participants courtesy of North Bay Rotary. There is also a chance to win a prize for participants collecting pledges. For every $50 collected and turned in on March 13, your name is entered in the draw.
Join us for a $5.00 Omelet Station ... created by Sous Chef Eric Fleming. All proceeds from this gourmet breakfast will be donated to the Kilometres for Kids
