The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” T.

  • Saksframlegg
    SAKSFRAMLEGG Saksbehandler: Per Aimar Carlsen Arkiv: C21 Arkivsaksnr.: 17/7363 SØKNAD OM STØTTE TIL RAWAIR 2018 Rådmannens innstilling 1. Det bevilges 250 000 kr i støtte til gjennomføring av RawAir i Vikersundbakken 16- 19 mars 2018. En forutsetning for denne støtte er at det ikke søkes om ytterligere midler til gjennomføring av arrangementet, frikjøp av personer knyttet til arrangementet, støtte til arrangement i tilknytning til skiflygingsarrangementet (næringsseminar), andre utgifter knyttet til arrangementet. 2. Bevilget beløp finansieres slik: 150 000 dekkes ved bruk av formanskapets disposisjonskonto. 100 000 kr dekkes ved omdisponering innenfor kultursektorens budsjett 2017 Vedlegg Saknad fra Flying Team Vikersund AS Kortversjon FIS World Cup i skiflygning – Raw Air søker 250 000 kr til gjennomføring av arrangement i 2018. Den norske Hoppuka Raw Air arrangeres for andre gang. Den starter i Holmenkollen 9. mars, fortsetter i Lillehammer, Trondheim, og avsluttes med superfinale på Vikersund 16. – 18. mars. Et skiflygingsarrangement er viktig for Modum. Arrangementet blir kringkastet i mange land og når ut til millioner av TV-seere verden rundt. Rennet bidrar med økonomisk dugnadskompensasjon for lokale lag og foreninger, en kompensasjon som i løpet av de siste årene har tilført 6 000 000,- til lag og foreninger i Modum og Buskerud. Det forberedes felles sak i Modum kommune/Buskerud fylkeskommune om videre fast støtte til stiftelsen/skiflygingsarrangøren. Egen sak om dette vil bli lagt fram i 2018. Fram til det er endelig avklart om mulig fast støtte (som vil utelukke årlige søknader) må stiftelsen/skiflygningsarrangøren søke kommune og fylket årlig om støtte. Rådmannen innstiller på å gi tilskudd for renn 2018 med 250 000 kr.
