1/19 Adaptive Skiing
Hit the slopes! Join Yesodot for our second
annual Martin Luther King Day adaptive ski event at Waterville
Valley, New Hampshire. For those who are mobile and can walk
independently, there will be a choice of adaptive skiing or
adaptive snowboarding. For those who are unable to walk independently
there will be adaptive skiing. Free for paid up members who
will receive priority; $40 for other members. Limited to 18
adaptive skiers.
The adaptive ski center at Waterville Valley
can accommodate skiers with physical, sensory, learning, developmental
and other disabilities. Because Yesodot pays for Waterville
Valley to hold these adaptive ski slots open for our families,
there will be a cancellation fee of $60/adaptive skier for
cancellations after January 12. RSVP to director@yesodot.org.
