    Description

    Northwest Association for Blind Athletes (NWABA) will be holding a snowshoe hiking experience for athletes who are blind and visually impaired. We are looking for volunteers to assist in guiding our athletes through the snowshoe in a group.

    Volunteers should be experienced hikers, but no previous blindness guiding experience is required, and we have some orientation videos that will get you up to speed! We encourage anyone with an interest in hiking, sports, and helping others to come and join us on this snowshoe hike!
