How You Can Help?
VOLUNTEER
Volunteers are the backbone of Gateway Disabled Ski Program.
We are completely dependent on you.
GDSP needs non-skiing and skiing volunteers.
Novice, intermediate and experienced skiers can help our athletes.
Volunteers may assist skiers on a one-to-one basis as a "ski buddy" on the hill or help maintain equipment, fit athletes to equipment, organize and coordinate volunteers, athletes and events.
Training is provided.
