I wanted to post a brief thank you to everyone who participated in 'Wounded Warrior' Camp & Ability Challenge at Alpine Meadows this past week/end.

 

What a fantastic event! 

 

Here's a link to an article about the 'Wounded Warrior' camp...

Serenity,

 

I work for a company that has decided to hire Wounded Warriors and I've been honored with being one of their mentors (help with the transition to the company and civilian life).  We're a large company with a large prior military/reserve population and our products are mostly for the military.

 

We won't even meet them until June and they probably won't start working here until mid summer or so, but I'm already trying to figure out how I can get them involved in skiing.

 

I don't know what any of their disabilities are yet, but I figure if you're going to live in NH, you need to learn to enjoy the winter.

 

I sure I'll need some help from this forum in the future to guide me in getting things set up.
