This event celebrates the accomplishments of Disabled Sports USA Far West, our participants, volunteers and honored guests. The Ability BASH on Saturday evening, March 31st, is the culmination of a five-day event highlighting the abilities of people with disabilities and the powerful positive health and confidence building effects of our programs.

 

The week starts with an Ability Camp for 25 soldiers and marines disabled in Iraq and Afghanistan. They will receive specialized instruction in adapted snow skiing and snowboarding at the Disabled Sports Program Center at Alpine Meadows Resort. They will also participate in other winter recreation designed as part of their therapy and re-integration into the community.

 

On Friday, March 30th, and Saturday, March 31st, the Ability Challenge will feature donors, sponsors and disabled skiers for a fun day of on-hill activities. An awards presentation is scheduled at the end of the day.

The 2012 Ability Challenge is for anyone with a love of skiing, a love of someone with a disability or a love of making the world a better place. It's a fun day on the slopes you won't want to miss. More at www.abilitychallenge.net

 

The Ability BASH on Saturday evening, March 31st, has been one of North Tahoe’s premier fundraising events for 18 years. This banquet, dance and silent auction is a wonderful uplifting evening for all in attendance.
