Skiing should be for everyone, sometimes all it takes is a little adaptive equipment and and organization that has what it takes to give people a chance to TRY!
Our program has 10 paid instructors certified by the Professional Ski Instructors Association - Adaptive program.
We are asking for as many volunteers as we can get. If you are interested, please VOLUNTEER to work with us.
