Ontario Trillium Foundation
The Kawartha Nordic Ski Club gratefully acknowledges the financial support of the Ontario Trillium Foundation. The Foundation, an agency of the Ministry of Culture, receives $100 million annually in government funding generated through Ontario's charity casino initiative. Thanks to their generous grant, we were able to make trail improvements to allow for skate skiing. In addition, we have purchased new grooming equipment to help with trail maintenance.
