bi-skier with NSCD volunteerVolunteer - A New Way to Vacation and Hit the Slopes for Free!

Spend a week in the Colorado Rockies learning, playing and having a positive impact on people with special needs. The NSCD offers week-long volunteer vacation opportunities in which individuals, groups or families volunteer a half a day. The rest of the day is yours to ski or snowboard for free. A minimum of intermediate ski or snowboard skills are required.

The Volunteer Vacation program requires a half-day of training and at least three half days of volunteer service the following week. Duties may include being a lesson assistant, helping with equipment or loading and unloading students on chairlifts.

An NSCD volunteer vacation is a rewarding alternative to a typical ski vacation. You will enjoy a rich experience assisting guests with disabilities while learning about adaptive skiing/riding.

Sample schedule:

Saturday afternoon

Arrive in Winter Park
Sunday morning Attend NSCD Volunteer Vacation training to learn how to assist an instructor
Sunday afternoon Free ski/ride
Monday - Friday Volunteer at NSCD in a.m. and free ski/ride in p.m. (or ski in a.m. and help in p.m.)
Saturday Return home

Discounted lodging (to be booked by volunteer vacationers using a special code) is offered to our volunteer vacation participants. Volunteers are responsible for all other costs, which may be tax-deductible.
