The brothers of Psi Chapter had one of the most successful Ski
For Cancer events in its history in 2013. Members of the Madison community
once again enjoyed a beautiful day of skiing, snowboarding, and tubing on
the slopes of Cascade Mountain in Portage, WI. Both members and non-members
of the UW-Madison Greek community, along with their friends and families,
showed up in full force for the benefit of the MACC Fund. The proceeds from
ticket sales, alumni donations, and sponsorships from local businesses
totalied $28,500

2011 - Parker Gabriel: Cascade Mt. - Portage WI

The revived Ski for Cancer, under chairman Parker Gabriel (center), donated $15,500 to the Midwest Athletes Against Childhood Cancer Fund in March 2010
1994 - David Schwartz says: "I was SFC chairman for 1994. We raised $5000, and it was the most rewarding thing I did in my time in Madison. It is a lot of hard work, but it was a great experience"
1972 - Roy Sheppard: We raised $6,500 at Skyline Ski Area, Friendship, Wis. By that fourth year, the event took off, as it became "the event" to attend, and Theta Chi had figured out how to maximize fun and reduce expenses. Lots of positive press at a time when student unrest had most in Madison very leary of students.
1969 - Jim
Huhta: Cascade Mountain - $650
