How does our fee money and funds that are raised get distributed?
The nordic committee which is an off-shoot of the larger BSF organization develops a budget each year. The budget includes coaches salaries, insurance, van expenses, travel, coaches education, athlete support, trail grooming, snow making and general trail maintenance. See the handbook for a more detailed breakdown of income and expenditures. BSF Nordic Fundraising supplements its program expenses to keep fees as low as possible—an additional $300 per athlete must be raised just to cover program costs.
