This Year we are fundraising to help finish our new Day Lodge and the finishing phase of construction!

The final "Finishing Phase" includes non-slip flooring, a commercial kitchen, furnishings, paint for the basement and more.

Thanks to the Nordic Canada Annual Club Fundraiser, you can make a donation and receive a charitable receipt. Depending on your donation, you also receive sponsorship acknowledgement. If you have a corporation, please consider a corporate sponsorship.

Gold Sponsorship (over $10,000) receives acknowledgement on the donor wall along side other major donors such as Columbia Basin Trust and the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary.

Silver Sponsorship ($5000-$9999) receives a plaque of recognition on an 8 foot table in the warming space.

Bronze Sponsorship ($2000-$4999) receives a plaque of recognition on a bench in the warming space.

Less than $2000 receives an invitation to the Grand Opening Celebration coming in the Spring.

The construction of the new day lodge has been four years of hard work and dedication from club volunteers and community members. We sincerely appreciate DJM Construction for their amazing leadership. Please contribute to help make our new day lodge into an amazing space for us all to enjoy.

Ferraro FOODs: Gift Cards

Bob McLean, a long time volunteer and dedicated supported of Black Jack’s Skier Development Program, invites everyone to support our young athletes through the Ferraro Foods Gift Card program. The Ferraro Foods Gift Card program provides critical funding to our Skier Development Program (SDP), which supports athletes from Bunnies, taking their first strides on snow, all the way to our senior racers who compete in World Cup races.

If you purchase a Ferraro’s gift card through us, Ferraro Foods will donate 7% of the value of the gift card to the Black Jack Skier Development Program. For example, if you purchase a card worth $200, then the SDP receives $14 while you redeem the gift card for its full value. It is a fantastic fundraiser for us.

We can accept your contributions in a variety of forms including direct deposit (probably easiest for both us and you), post-dated cheques (also great), e-transfer at fundraising.blackjackskiteam@gmail.com, or cash. Our mailing address is Black Jack Skier Development Box 2182 Rossland BC V0G 1Y0.

Please call if you have any further questions at 250-362-9494 or 250-231-0029 or email climb-on@telus.net.

Thank you so much for your support of the Skier Development Program at Black Jack!

Black Jack Ski Club LEGACY FUND

In 2015, a Black Jack Ski Club legacy fund was established. Initial donations were largely motivated by the recognition of Richie Mann's lifetime contribution to the Club and the passing of his wife Audrey. Follow the link https://bit.ly/3qwWQ7l for Richie and Audrey's story and the list of initial donors.

This Legacy Fund will exist in perpetuity, with part of the investment income earned going back to the club each year, and any remainder reinvested in the fund. The fund will grow over time, especially as people make donations or leave bequests in their wills. Click the button below to contribute online to this fund. Donations are tax deductible and the LeRoi Foundation will send you a tax receipt immediately.
