Description
  • The Adaptive Sports Center (ASC) is a year-round outdoor recreation program serving people with physical and developmental disabilities, their friends, and families.

    The ASC's mission is to promote and provide outdoor recreation to people with disabilities, as well as their friends and families. The activities that we offer teach new life skills, build self-confidence, and empower people to experience the freedom of outdoor recreation. The skills learned carry over into our clients' daily lives by offering them a higher level of comfort with their abilities, increased body awareness, and more options for physical activity.

    During the winter season, the ASC offers alpine and Nordic skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, and guided backcountry trips. In the summer months, a wide variety of activities are provided, including whitewater rafting, rock climbing, canoeing, downhill mountain biking, handcycling, camping, multi-day river trips and a challenge course.

    The activities offered teach new life skills, build self-confidence, and empower people with disabilities to challenge themselves both mentally and physically and to experience success.

    Instruction is available for individual lessons, or come participate in one of our many special events and camps throughout the year. In addition, the ASC will create custom camps for your organization's group visit.

    All ASC instructors are professionally trained and certified to instruct individuals with all levels of physical and cognitive abilities. Most instructors have been with us for many years. They bring experience and continuity to our program for the repeat clients that come year after year.
