STRIDE’s  Warfighter Program

Provides integrated adaptive sports and recreation activities to men and women of the armed forces who have been injured in deployment, including programs in snow sports, marksmanship, sled hockey, watersports, cycling, social activities, and camping.

Leveling the playing field for ALL!
