GUBAFC Donor Challenges!

Hello Bowdoin Nordic fans - the 2026 Go U Bears Athletic Fund Challenge is underway! This is a HUGE event for us - it's our primary source of funds to support our Fall Camp and Thanksgiving Camp along with various other priorities. Last year, we were able to make our camps 100% cost free for all athletes for the first time ever thanks to the GUBAFC, and our goal is to make this change permanent. We're also hoping to raise enough money to replace our trusty but aging SkiErgs. The ergs are a great training resource for our skiers, especially when we're dealing with injuries, darkness, bad weather, and class conflicts. And modern ergs would make everyone's favorite fitness test, the 2000m erg time trial, even more enjoyable! We have two donor challenges happening right now - if we reach 26 donors by Thursday night, we'll unlock a $250 gift, and if we hit 125 we'll receive another $1250! Last year I believe we reached 117, so we can do this. Please click the link above to give - even small gifts mean a lot! Thanks so much for supporting Bowdoin Nordic!
