Support MSU Purple Tails in the 2025 Air Race Classic

Hello everyone! We are the MSU Purple Tails representing Minnesota State University, Mankato. Our team will be competing in the 2025 Air Race Classic this upcoming June in the collegiate category! Our team consists of five Mankato flight students: Arianna Moore, Marlee Walker, Anjie Guzik, Sophie Fuchs, and Lou Kritzeck.

The Air Race Classic is a women’s-only cross-country race that is around 2,400 statute miles and must be completed within four days. Each team must work together to factor in weather, wind, terrain, and airplane performance throughout the route to get the best time compared to other competitors.

We have to raise $10,000 to compete in the race, which includes team registration, aircraft rental, fuel, and hotel fees. The Purple Tails are greatly excited for this opportunity and appreciate all donations and support! Thank you!
