2011 LaRoccaXC Club Riding Calendar


Not For Profit Status

During the winter of 2010, a group of committed riders met to discuss the possibilities of LaRoccaXC Mountain Club becoming a not for profit organization. Following a couple of meetings and numerous email exchanges, it became apparent that the focus for 2011 should be the recruitment of dedicated volunteers to lead different portfolios (sponsorship, fundraising, social committee, marketing, finances, program design etc.) and form the board of executive. This project is presently on hold.

2011 Club LaRoccaXC Club

The LaRoccaXC Cycling Club is for riders who:
