This event is a fundraiser for Seeley Lake Nordic Ski Club and the Wilderness Sportsman's Club of Seeley Lake. Both Clubs are IRS 501(c)(4) non profit organizations. Seeley Lake Nordic volunteers groom and maintain the trails at Seeley Creek. These donations are used to cover operational expenses such as fuel for grooming equipment and as a cash match for grant funds used to maintain and improve this trail system.
Donations also go to the Wilderness Sportsman Club of Seeley Lake. The WSC uses these donations to maintain the Seeley Lake Rifle Range.
