THANK YOU FOR YOUR PROMPT ATTENTION!

We are thrilled to announce that our PE program has been awarded one of the Ski 4 Kids Equipment Grants by the Nordic Skiing Association of Anchorage (NSAA) to purchase more ski boots for our students! This incredible grant will make a world of difference for our young skiers, ensuring they have the right size boots for a safer and more enjoyable skiing experience. We extend our deepest gratitude to NSAA for their generosity and commitment to promoting winter sports and healthy lifestyles among our youth. With their support, we can provide our students with the proper equipment they need to thrive on the trails! But wait, there's more! We're doubly excited to share that our amazing APC Board has stepped up to the plate and matched the grant, doubling our purchasing power! Thank you, APC Board! Together, with the support of NSAA and our APC Board, we're expanding our ski program!

Please take the time to visit the NSAA website and all the great Nordic skiing opportunities they have for kids and families, such as the AMH Anchorage Cup races or the annual Ski 4 Kids event, most of these events are free for kids! https://anchoragenordicski.com/
