Skier Progress is Amazing.
The participants have had huge smiles on their faces, and the volunteers too.
From walking to gliding...
From skiing with assistance to skiing with someone nearby...
From skiing with assistance to skiing independently...
The participants progress has been so rapid, we are all excited and eager to see what each one will be able to do the next session.
Skis are in, waxed, and the bindings are mounted! :)
Amazing Volunteers and Community!
Wow! Yesterday I sent out an email to ask 5 of our volunteers if they would be willing to wax our new skis, and within a couple of hours all skis were taken. Now today, the youth skis are at Sports Rack (a local ski shop) and they are mounting the bindings for us!
Thank you everyone for your amazing support for our program! The participants are grateful. :)
