100 Mile Nordic Ski Society
Project Brief
This nordic ski club has a long history in our community. It's a wonderful littlle ski club with a beatiful lodge, great nordic trails and snowshoe trails. It's one of the more affordable family activities in the community and the health benefits speak for themselves.
- Memberships and sales have been in decline.
- Website management was done by volunteers on a Wix Site and was costing over $600/yr
- Email was used as the main way to communicate club activities to the community
- Facebook audience size was too small given the numbers of members in the club
