oregon adaptive sports

I have recently been fortunate to begin volunteering on Mt. Bachelor with Oregon Adaptive Sports (OAS). OAS has been providing instruction for over 20 years to adaptive athletes of all ages in skiing, snowboarding, climbing, biking, hiking, paddle sports, and more.

If you’ve ever skied or rode Bachelor, you’ve seen the size of this operation – athletes and their instructors and volunteers in orange vests taking full advantage of the beautiful terrain every day of the week. OAS helps bring the empowerment and joy of outdoor activities to every athlete. Yesterday I got to help a young man snowboard for the first time, and it was beyond awesome!

If you live in central Oregon, check out OAS. They have a lot of fun things going on all the time, and a lot of ad hoc volunteer opportunities that don’t even involve skiing, so you can easily donate a couple hours of your time to help this fabulous organization.
