Volunteer and Donation Opportunities
Dakota Gold has a wide variety of needs as this club expands and improves. Dakota Gold’s operating budget is dependent upon fundraising, sponsorships and players fees. Dakota Gold wants to avoid raising player’s fees to cover this expansion and requests the membership’s help with their expertise, contacts, services, etc.
