My name is Joe Cichy. I am retired and am a volunteer football coach with the Napoleon Gackle Streeter North Dakota football team. This will be my fourth season with the team and we are in need of a 5-man blocking sled. The present sled is over 25 years old and is in disrepair. With the drought and pressing school funding needs I am seeking $6,000 in donations to fund the purchase of the sled.

As a former All American and Hall of Fame football player I know the importance of teaching fundamental football skills. Learning proper technique not only enhances the player's performance but reduces their risk of injury. The sled will be a key piece of training equipment for my players. Any excess funds received will go towards the purchase of a tackling sled and other football field equipment.
