National Sports Center For the Disabled

Completely understandable that having to cancel at the last minute due to our child having the flu meant we couldn’t be reimbursed or rescheduled because someone was already paid for the day. Resort towns are already pricey so we strongly support people making a living wage, thus the 2 stars not 1. However, sad that we felt we finally found a community that could be helpful with our child’s disability only to be told we should just speak with their doctor to figure out how to keep them safe on the mountain. Hope in the future this program can be helpful for others where it wasn’t for us.

The team here is incredible! If you're seeking an awesome day on the mountain, with beautiful energy, kindness, knowledge, and a full fleet of gear, this is the place. The staff and volunteers are knowledgeable, fun, excited about what they do, and are uplifting to be around. Thank you Winter Park Adaptive Team!

Caro and Marchan were a ton of fun to go rafting with and did a fantastic job supporting our employees and disabled residents. We hope to work with NSCD on future activities and adventures.

I can’t say enough positive things about the staff and the experience I had out here. I been wanting to pickup better skills with skiing and they really helped. Staff were awesome! And they know there stuff! I can’t wait to go back and do more skiing highly recommend!

I had such a great time skiing with my ski instructor, Melinda. She believed in me when I couldn’t. I had such a great time, I wish I had a few more days with her. This was a trip to remember!

I was injured almost 4 years ago. My recovery has been slow and arduous. I wasn't sure, at all, if I'd ski again. Thanks to the kindness, helpfulness, and skills of my instructors, I ski again. Thank you; bless you!

Our experiences with our son participating in NSCD are priceless. We recommend winter and summer programs.

Can't say enough about the care shown here. Our 11 year old grandson is in a sit ski and had the same experience as other skiers thanks to this program, staff and volunteers.

This organization was the most dedicated, loving, and compassionate group ever!!!! We took my 8 year old son who is a paraplegic from Spina Bifida for a day skiing on the mountain at Winter Park. He had the best time ever!!!! His instructors LP and Stephanie were awesome! My mom heart had no worried leaving him in their capable and loving hands! He can't wait to go back and do it all again. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

Winter Park is the home of the National Sports Center for the Disabled, and I have NEVER met a more dedicated and wonderful group of skiers and instructors in all my years. PROPS!!!!!! I had the pleasure of getting to know the good people that do this incredible work back in the 80's, when my dad volunteered as an instructor. Thanks to the selfless efforts of Hal O'Leary and a group of amazing volunteers, the NSCD was pioneered and stands to this day as an organization which is a shining example of what makes America great!
