Everyone deserves a chance to hit the slopes, and the Saskatchewan Adaptive Snow Ski Club (ASSC) is working to give everyone in the Battlefords area equal access.
Table Mountain will be hosting its first promotional day March 19 to get more skiers with disabilities and physical challenges out on the hill.
Jaimie Smith-Windsor, vice chair with the Saskatchewan Rivers Public School Division, said those with disabilities will have access to different equipment to suit their needs, including sit-skis, outriggers and mono-skis.
“The whole idea is to just meet every skier where they’re at,” Smith-Windsor said, “[We’ll] match them with equipment and instructors who are certified through the Canadian Association of Disabled Skiers and set some goals and have some fun for the day.”
