Our Partnership with Adaptive Sports Connection
At Aspen Ski and Board, we’re proud to support the incredible work of Adaptive Sports Connection, formerly known as TAASC, an organization dedicated to empowering individuals with disabilities through outdoor adventure sports.
We believe everyone deserves the chance to experience the joy of skiing, snowboarding, and being active in the outdoors. That’s why $1 from every $15 ski or snowboard tune-up at our shop goes directly to support Adaptive Sports Connection. In addition, we regularly donate skis, boots, and other equipment to help fuel their mission.
