Adaptive Alpine Ski Racing Program

Team Summit is proud to support competitive adaptive alpine ski racing in Summit County Colorado.  In
partnership with Adaptive Adventures, athletes with physical disabilities will train with able bodied athletes at partner
Summit County Mountains and compete under the banner of Team Mau and Adaptive adventures.  This is a cutting edge
approach to blending adaptive competitive skiing with able bodied competitive skiing.  Not only are the athletes under
the same club umbrella, but they are training together and sharing a common passion for alpine skiing.

Program Fees: TBD (Contact Erik Leirfallom for more information)
