FUNDRAISING
The Lethbridge Amateur Speed Skating Association is very appreciative of the financial support it has received from members of the surrounding community. Normally, the club runs an annual silent auction and raffle to help offset operations costs. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, however, fundraising events will look a little different for the foreseeable future.
Below please find current fundraising initiatives:
The LSSA "Triple B" Coffee Fundraiser
​
For over four years, the Lethbridge Amateur Speed Skating Association has partnered with Cupper's Coffee & Tea to provide our community with fantastic coffee, support a wonderful local business and raise funds for the speed skating club.
As unique as the company themselves, Cupper's created the signature and exclusive "Triple B" (Bridge Blades Blend) for LSSA. It is available to order in a number of specific grinds and roasts including: medium, dark and decaf!
Available grinds include:
-
Whole Bean

​
For $20, a 1lb bag of the "Triple B" will be prepared just for you! As of March 2021, orders can be made online! Please follow this LINK and submit your order! We appreciate your support!
​
Is coffee not for you? Would you prefer tea or something a little different, too?
​
This fundraising offer includes tubes of creamy and delicious frappe mix!
The frappe mix is $12.95/200g tube, and makes six scrumptious beverages. These year-round drinks can be prepared with water, milk, or milk alternatives. They taste delicious and can be made either hot or blended with ice as a frappe!
​
Available in five fantastic flavours:
