Help us Keep our Athletes & Coaches Safe on the Road & Raffle Opportunity

ABOUT OUR CAMPAIGN

Our MBSEF programs are always on the move. Each year, we collectively put over 100,000 miles on our MBSEF fleet, transporting athletes to races, training camps, and daily sessions at Mt. Bachelor. However, our fleet is aging. 7 of our 14 vans are over 15 years old, and all together our vans have an average mileage of 122,500 miles. Several vans are approaching or have exceeded 200,000 miles.

As you can imagine, maintaining high-mileage vans is costly, and we’re increasingly hesitant to send some of our older vans far from town. Given the treacherous winter roads we navigate, it’s crucial that our vehicles are in top-notch condition and equipped with modern safety features like AWD and airbags.

Two generous families from our MBSEF community have anonymously donated a total of $40,000 towards the purchase of two new vans. To reach our ultimate fundraising goal of $80,000 (half the price of these vans, winter tires and racks), we need your help.

Each contribution will make a significant difference. Together, we can ensure our entire fleet is safe and ready for the winter season, providing our athletes with the reliable transportation they need.

A RAFFLE OPPORTUNITY

Mt. Bachelor is supporting our campaign by offering a 2024-2025 season alpine pass, (valued at $1399) to be raffled off. Therefore, all supporters have the opportunity to designate their contribution as a DONATION OR as a RAFFLE ENTRY. For every $100 a supporter contributes, they may receive one entry into the raffle. The drawing will take place at MBSEF's Bill Healy Training Center on Monday, September 16th at 12pm. We will broadcast our drawing live on Instagram (@mbsef_programs) and the winner will be notified via email by the end of the business day.

With a maximum of only 400 entries, your chances of winning are high! Please keep in mind that to participate in the raffle you must physically be located in the state of Oregon and 18 years of age or older at the time of purchase. Also, raffle related contributions are not eligible for tax deductions. During the payment process you will be asked how you'd like to designate your contribution. Please feel free to reach out to marieka@mbsef.org with any questions.

Thank you for your support!
