Lake Minnetonka Triathlon
YMCA- Camp Christmas Tree
For 2019 we are partnering with the YMCA! Day camp is a wonderful place for children to escape to nature and enjoy fun outdoor activities, without being attached to a screen. The YMCA staff help kids learn new skills and build self-esteem while practicing the YMCA's core values.
The YMCA offers scholarships to help individuals and families access fun summer programs, like Camp Christmas Tree.
Can Do Canines
Can Do Canines helps enhance the quality of life for people with disabilities by creating mutually beneficial partnerships with specially trained dogs. Since 1989, they have been providing assistance dogs to people with disabilities, free of charge. Their fully-trained dogs, sometimes adopted from local shelters, are provided to people with mobility challenges, hearing impaired, seizure disorders, children with autism, and other conditions. Can Do Canines was our charity partner in 2018.
Perspectives
Our charity partner for 2017-Perspectives helps local mothers that are affected by poverty, addiction, trauma, or abuse. They do this by providing tools and access to resources to empower herself and rebuild her family in a healthy environment. They also help at-risk children with academics, better nutrition, summer recreation programs, student volunteering, and more.
