Thanks to our partnerships with 10+ Central Oregon schools, students in Life Skills Programs are gearing up for multiple weeks of private ski instruction at Mt. Bachelor and Hoodoo Ski Area. They'll be building skills, confidence, and having a blast on the slopes throughout the winter season!

For our amazing volunteers: did you know that different OAS on-snow trainings prepare you for different programs?

Ski for Life sessions are supported by Volunteer Coaches who have experience assisting with private lessons and are trained in OAS protocols. That means your training can help guide students in programs like Ski for Life, giving youth with disabilities a safe, supportive, and fun winter experience. If you're interested in supporting Ski For Life as a winter volunteer, make sure to sign up for the Ski For Life trainings via your MyImpact account.

The season is starting soon! We can’t wait to see our Ski for Life students make every run count!

Sometimes volunteering with OAS is a quiet lift ride. Other times, it’s helping someone crush their first run. Most of the time, it’s somewhere in between: smiles, snow, and a crew that loves what they do! Ready to be a part of it?

New Volunteer Orientations and Return Volunteer Info Sessions are coming up soon! Register today at the link in our bio.

The 2025 First Chair Gala was a night to remember — and a milestone for our mission. Together, we raised more than $350,000 to grow adaptive recreation opportunities for people with disabilities.

Whether you joined us in person, bid remotely, shared the event with friends and family, or volunteered your time, we’re deeply grateful for your support. Thank you for helping make this community stronger. 💙

Two weeks ago, we hosted Craig Hospital for another week of Craig Camp! Athletes explored the beautiful Bend mountain bike trails, learned bike maintenance tips, connected with each other, and paddled together during their adventure week out West.

A huge thank you to for your continued partnership and support in making these transformational experiences possible!
