Volunteering
​
The National Disabled Veterans Winter Sports Clinic depends on a corps of more than 700 volunteers.
​
Based on the needs of the event and its Veterans, volunteers with specific skills and abilities are prized contributors.
​
Those include:
-
Certified adaptive ski instructors
-
CDL drivers with class “B” passenger endorsement
-
Clinical staff in the areas of recreation, occupational and physical therapists and adaptive sports specialists
Applications for attendance, participation, and volunteers at the 2024 Winter Sports Clinic are now closed.

Volunteer selections are a highly competitive process. Preference will be given to those who have volunteered previously or have volunteered with other adaptive sports clinics
Many volunteer opportunities are physically demanding at high altitude, require lifting and some require moderate computer skills. Each area has job-specific requirements. If you volunteer, please ensure you can meet the requirements.
