Our best programs sometimes come from our own members! Today Rotarian Col. Steve Sewell spoke on his involvement as a volunteer with "Ski For Light," an annual event that gives persons who are visually impaired or have other physical limitations the opportunity to experience the slopes. Steve became involved in 2010, after returning in 2009 from deployment to Afghanistan and taking up skiing as a hobby. Ski For Light has been serving its participants since 1978, and offers assisted downhill and cross-country skiing as well as snowshoeing and snowmobiling in the Black Hills of South Dakota. This year about 125 persons participated, with about 175 volunteers serving in various capacities. Thanks for your service and continued volunteerism, Steve (who is our Club's President Nominee!), and for a great program.
Below, Steve demonstrates to Club President Dr. Michael Gonda some of the equipment used in Ski For Light.
