It is the support of our alumni, parents and friends of Bates skiing that is essential to achieving our goals of being top-10 at NCAA’s, producing All-Americans, individual national champions and carnival winners. Your support goes a long way towards supplementing our annual budget which supports a team of up to 20 athletes. Currently we rely on this support to help fund fall training camps, travel to Eastern Cups, Nor-Ams and US Nationals, to purchase team jackets and GS suits as well as other equipment that the team needs to perform at it’s highest level.
Gifts of any amount are greatly appreciated. In addition if you have a particular purchase or activity that you would like to support please contact the coaching staff.
Examples of how your support can help the team -
$60 - One race entry fee
$80 - One team soft shell jacket
$250 - One team jacket
$350 - Season pass for one athlete
$500 - Video Camera
$700 - One GS suit
$1000 - One spin bike
$1500 - Fall training camp for one athlete
Donations to the team can be made through the Friends of Bates Athletics site. 100% of all donations directed to the Alpine Ski Team go directly to team.
