Help Save the Paskapoo Downhill Rodeo Raffle
The Speedboard and Longboard Association of Calgary (SLAC) will be running a fundraiser raffle from Aug. 22 to Oct. 1st. SLAC is the Alberta Non-profit Society that organized the extremely ambitious 2007 Paskapoo Downhill Rodeo. In 2007 prior to the race a major sponsor (and a few minor sponsors) reneged on a verbal contact after our drop-dead date which in turn forced SLAC organizers to run a deficit or be forced to cancel the 2007 race . Realising that a large number or riders had already booked international flights, SLAC members pressed forward and when the dust settled the event was negative in excess of $20,000. SLAC has been tirelessly trying to get out of the red since. |
