Thank you for making Therapeutic Adventures and Massanutten Adaptive Snow Sports (MASS) an important part of your life experience. We are grateful to all the parents, friends and caregivers who supported our adaptive skiers/riders and made it possible for them to join us on the slopes of Massanutten.
It’s hard to believe it’s been 36 years of instruction with MASS & 20 years of the Independence Cup. This year, due to the weather we did what we do best – We Adapted and provided the first “Adaptive Snow Challenge” – a series of snow games, relays, and group challenges for our adaptive athletes, families and volunteers.
Special thanks to Kenny Hess, Steve Showalter & all the staff of Massanutten Resort for their continued support of our program. We would also like to thank all the Ski Patrol, Ski School, Rental Shop, Lift Operators, Cody Bridges & Timmy of Eastern Purveyors.
