[Sportsandrec] New England's Blind / Visually Impaired Alpine Ski Festival Week Opportunity

[Scott]

Greetings Sports and Recreation List,



A cool opportunity awaits!


Please consider and pass along to anyone interested in blind / visually impaired alpine skiing and anyone interested in learning to guide blind and VI skiers..





New England Blind and Visually Impaired Alpine Ski Festival Week.  This is the second annual event held at Sugarloaf Mountain Resort in Carrabasset Valley, Maine,  February 10 - 14, 2013.    This national event is designed to create a unique social, recreational and educational experience for skiers of all levels. Skiers will have the opportunity to develop their skiing abilities on all levels of terrain with their own guides or qualified festival volunteers. Skills enhancement will also be available for guides from Certified PSIA Adaptive and experienced clinicians.   Please visit our web site for additional information at http://nevifest.org/.   Also, we had a great time last year with participants enjoying activities in the evening, which we provided.  So we are pleased to offer them again this year.  We are working on updating the schedule of events on the web site over the next week or two, but in the meantime, I have listed the most up - to - date information for your promotional purposes below. 

I look forward to hearing from you and please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
