Thanks again for taking part in Sled Island 2024! ⁠ ⁠ Did you notice our tent cards around the festival? Many people don’t know that Sled Island is a registered charity, and pass/ticket sales only cover 25% of our annual expenses, so we depend on donations in order the keep the fest going! ⁠ ⁠ This year we are honoured to be a part of Rogers Birdies for Kids presented by AltaLink. This non-profit program is under the Calgary Shaw Charity Classic Foundation, and is a program designed to help raise new funds for local charities. ⁠ ⁠ All donations made until August 31, 2024 will be matched up to 50% through the Rogers Birdies for Kids presented by AltaLink program! ⁠ ⁠ Learn more and donate today at the link in our bio!⁠ ⁠ (📸: @heathersaitz )
