Did you know that skiing is a popular sport for people who are blind or visually impaired? It is! ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEN42dBp-m_ofQEr8sFafmDIp3v_-inZjBaZzmvPI1ujdHIIJJB0egRePrAyTLJxd3cZjgV7Txg7-Hql-kxLCDTI0zqLpe4m6hnrLLaDaLMZRb1MCsydnczW5Z6FJkvwO69PZugT3DVzyy/s400/Blindearly1990s.jpg)

If you are in Connecticut, check out Ski Sundown. We took our students there for one of our Teen Escape trips. Our students had a blast! There are also great ski locations in Vermont & Maine. Skiing is a great sport for children with vision impairments and it is something the whole family can do.
