SUMMER IN FULL SWING

Our summer programs are going strong. Check them out on our website www.disabledsports.net by clicking the programs tab on our homepage. Many of our summer activities are designed for family participation.

We recently received permission from Squaw Valley to conduct our 23rd annual FoamFest on the KT deck at the Olympic House, September 1st 2 to 6 pm. Don't miss out on rockin' blues and craft brews at Squaw. Admission is free for concert goers, designated drivers and anyone under 21 years of age ($10 donation at the entrance requested). More about FoamFest on our webpage under events soon.

Our Their Spirit Inspires event went extremely well. 15 wounded warriors disabled in Iraq or Afghanistan attended the sports camp during the week. The dinner on Saturday night was a great success thanks to all the hard working volunteers.
