Our biggest fundraiser of the year, FOCA Cambridge City Run, is fast approaching. We need your help in securing sponsors for this event before February 28th. All proceeds benefit student athletes and their teams. We awarded $6,000 in scholarships to graduating seniors and $12,000 in grant money towards specialized equipment, gear, and training that was not covered by Cambridge Public Schools.

The CRLS Orienteering team is sending six athletes to the Junior Nationals Competition in Texas this spring. To make this financially possible for our athletes, we are hosting a fundraiser at American Flatbread this Tuesday, January 28th.
Flatbread will donate $4 per large pizza and $2 per small pizza purchase between 4 p.m. and 10 p.m. on January 28th. The O-team and Friends of Cambridge Athletics will receive proceeds for PIZZA PURCHASES ONLY, dine-in, take-out, and delivery.
This is a wonderful opportunity to support the CRLS orienteering team, FOCA, and a local business while also enjoying some comfort food in this cold weather. Please consider ordering pizza from American Flatbreads this Tuesday.
Date: January 28th (Tuesday), 4-10 pm
