NEW VOLUNTEERS:
-
Do you want to make a difference?
-
We are always looking for help in a surprising array of areas. We can always use qualified skiers/snowboarders to help guide or with training/experience to instruct.
-
Our adaptive family encompasses children and adults with developmental disabilities, visual impairments, paraplegia, amputations, muscle/skeletal issues and an array of other disabilities. We provide adaptive equipment and teaching methods to help make winter fun!
-
-
Do you like to do fundraising or organize events? We need you! GPAS raises its own funding to cover the expenses of insurance, adaptive equipment, heat, hot chocolate (lots of that), and all sorts of other associated expenses.
-
Are you mechanically inclined? Maybe you would like to help in our equipment room. Monoskis and outriggers need to be maintained/repaired and inventoried. We can use you!
-
Do you have a strong back? We’re talking winter…there is always snow to shovel, monoskis to carry, sliders to push. Yes, we can use you!
-
Tell us your skill and we will find a place for you to help!
