On February 24th, I will be teaming up with the Salem Slalomers, to ski a total of 100,000 vertical feet in one day to raise funds to support STRIDE Adaptive Sports. STRIDE provides the opportunity for individuals who live with the challenges of physical and intellectual disabilities to participate in adaptive sports and recreation programs, not only in the winter, but year-round! My nephew, David, took his first ski lesson with Stride at Jiminy Peak when he was 6 years old. 11 years later, he spends most Winter weekends bombing down the black diamonds, with me and his cousins, and is a member of the Stride Race Team. David also participates in STRIDE Summer camping weekends and White-Water rafting trips. For over 30 years, STRIDE has provided free or low-cost adaptive sports and recreation programs. The support they provide to special needs youth, Wounded Warriors, and individuals with physical disabilities impacts lives far beyond the ski slopes! Your support of my participation in the 100K Challenge means so much to me. Please help our team reach our fundraising goal to support this great organization and the amazing volunteers who make Stride Adaptive Sports possible.
