OUR MISSION: TO SUPPORT THE RECOVERY AND FAMILY BONDING OF WOUNDED WARRIORS, WARRIOR SPOUSES, OR CAREGIVERS AND THEIR CHILDREN THROUGH THE RECREATIONAL THERAPY OF SNOW SPORTS AND OTHER OUTDOOR RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES.
THIS EVENT IS HELD AT SEVEN SPRINGS MOUNTAIN RESORT
Our organization is comprised of dedicated, hard-working men and women, many who themselves are veterans, who give freely of their time and pay their own expenses.
Thank you to the Seven Springs Mountain Resort and our many sponsors and contributors for their generosity, making this event possible each year.
Every year, at Seven Springs Mountain Resort, we host Wounded Warrior families for a three-day adventure of their lives. For five days, these Warriors and families enjoy first-class lodging, gourmet dining, skiing and snowboarding and many other activities. We have hosted families from as far away as Texas and as close as Carlisle, PA.
Seven Springs Mountain Resort provides the Wounded Warrior families with lodging, breakfast, lift tickets, equipment rentals, lessons, as well as welcoming gift baskets. The WWP covers travel expenses, evening meals and other expenses incurred by the Warrior families. Each Warrior and family member receive an official event t-shirt.
The WWP provides excellent on-slope support for our Warrior families. Comprised of National Ski Patrol, Skier Safety and other expert skiers and snowboarders, they have only one mission on the slope - maximize the families snow experience - safely!
Event evenings are always punctuated with a gourmet buffet dinner, guest speakers, mascots for the kids, recapping the ski day, laughter, fun.... camaraderie!
WHAT OTHERS THINK ABOUT OUR EVENT...
Thanks for allowing me to be part of a fabulous event that really means a lot to so many. I've told others to count me in for next year. I'm marking the calendar now. Everyone on the Wounded Warriors patrol is a true patroller meaning they know what it is to serve and provide a service.
Again thanks for a fantastic event and I'm looking forward to next year. I certainly plan to talk this up at the national level.
Thank you,
Burt
