Almost every month during the school year, the Utah School for the Blind takes visually impaired kids on an overnight field trip. They do many different types of activities including life skills (going to the store, riding the bus and train), sporting activities (Miller Motor Sports Park Racetrack, Curling) and outdoor events (fishing, snowshoeing). In January they were going to go skiing. Both Lexi and Conner were about the trip, so I said I would go with them for the skiing portion. It ended up being a great experience. Conner loved being on the mountain and keeps asking if we can go again. We're so grateful for so many great programs that are a blessing to our kids with special needs. And so grateful to the many wonderful people who work for or volunteer for these programs:)

That's really a neat program. I'm impressed with their skills; I never did get off the bunny hill myself when skiing...
ReplyDeleteMakes me want to go skiing again myself. Which ski resort were you at?
ReplyDeleteThis was at Snow Basin up near Ogden.
