The 8th Annual Michael J. Gray Memorial
Ski & Snowboard Race

The Michael Gray Memorial Ski & Snowboard Race is a great opportunity for all types of skiers and snowboarders to spend a day of fun at beautiful Ski Windham and to support the Adaptive Sports Foundation. Michael J. Gray, Jr. was a snowboard instructor with the Ski Windham Snow sports School, when he was tragically killed in a car accident. To honor Michael’s memory and dedication to snow sports, the Gray family started a memorial race in Michaels honor. The proceeds from the race are donated to the Adaptive Sports Foundation (ASF), an organization that offers a disabled person the chance to enjoy the sport of skiing/snowboarding as much as Michael did.

Since 1984, the Adaptive Sports Foundation (ASF) has been a nonprofit organization that has provided skiing and snowboarding lessons to people with disabilities at Ski Windham in Windham, New York. The foundation started out with approximately 20 volunteer instructors and 30 students. Since that initial season, the Foundation has grown and is now serving over 1500 individuals annually and has over 170 volunteer instructors on its roster. Recently the Foundation has added summer sports to the offering of recreational opportunities.
