NON PROFIT
The core of MTCX non-profit is the continuation of the proven and longstanding programs and events started by MTCX LLC under Shaun Radley. Programming is the foundation for youth development. The hosting of local events provides a safe and healthy environment for youth/adults to test themselves, build confidence, and establish community role models. Regional and national level events contribute to the competitive development of local youth/adult athletes and solidify Missoula as an outdoor sports mecca. In short, the programming and events are the cornerstones which guide the organization toward its vision. The retail and service components of MTCX LLC will not be continued under the non profit.
Why Transition: Transitioning to a nonprofit is an opportunity to formalize that mission & vision, establish structure for long term sustainability & success. What started 20 years ago with running Rolling Thunder has now developed into 30+ Events and two youth sports teams. We need more people involved and future generations to start contributing. We would like MTCX Events and Programs to live on for the next 100 years!
Current Status: We have received our Letter of Determination and are a officially a non profit organization. MTCX Events Programs is a registered 501(c)3 Organization with an EIN of 42-3024419
How you can Help: We are currently accepting sponsorship/donations for Fall Cyclocross Season and Winter Ice Badgers season. We are also looking for volunteer coaches for the Fall and Winter. Please email our Programs and Events Manager, Abby Wiggin, if you’d like to get involved. We are looking for financial help during this transition period. Stay tuned for more details.
