WINDHAM, NEW YORK (April 17, 2025) — The Adaptive Sports Foundation (ASF) has released its 2025 summer program schedule, featuring a full slate of Warriors in Motion® (WIM) events, adaptive skateboard camps and a multi-sport summer camp designed for individuals with disabilities.
Warriors in Motion® (WIM)
The ASF’s Warriors in Motion program provides US servicemen and women living with injuries the opportunity to engage in physical activity while learning about wellness and lifelong healthy habits. Each WIM event includes adaptive sports instruction, nutrition guidance, and wellness practices such as yoga and mindfulness. Not only does the physical activity aid in the warrior's rehabilitation, but so does the camaraderie that comes with exercising with fellow wounded veterans.
WIM events are held midweek throughout the summer, offering participants structured days that begin with equipment fittings, introductions to the sport, and group meals. The three-day format includes hands-on experience with the selected activity, overnight accommodations and support from ASF staff and volunteers.
All costs associated with these events — including meals, lodging, equipment, and supplies — are covered by ASF through grants and private donations.

About the Adaptive Sports Foundation
For over forty years the ASF has been providing sports and recreation opportunities to thousands in the disabled community. Since then, it has grown into what it is today, an organization that provides year-round services out of its own slope-side lodge, the Gwen Allard Adaptive Sports Center. All this has been accomplished over the years thanks to many donors and an impressive legion of volunteers, who can be seen in their iconic green jackets sliding down the snow-white slopes.
The Adaptive Sports Foundation is a non-profit organization that provides profound and life changing experiences for children and adults with physical disabilities, cognitive disabilities and chronic illnesses through outdoor physical activity, education, support and community.
