I'm thrilled to be a part of the Wailers' 2025 Vertical Challenge to benefit the Unrecables, a 501(c)(3) charity. The Unrecables are a 100% volunteer-based organization that promotes adaptive sports, encouraging people with all kinds of disabilities to participate.

It always warms my heart when I see someone with no legs skiing! They use poles that have little skis on them that they use as outriggers for balance. These sleds / rigs cost $5,000 Dollars or more. Other skier's disabilities include MS, Cerebral palsy, and bind or low-vision.

It's an incredibly difficult and daunting endeavor! These disabled skiers are tough, daring, and great athletes!

If you support me I suggest just checking the $30 flat-rate pledge Box. My goal is to ski more vertical feet then any other participant! So I don't want to bankrupt anyone!!! 😀

P.S. This event is open to everyone (over 18) so please join us! For more info go to www.WailersSkiClub.org

About this fundraiser:

What’s more fun than skiing/boarding? Skiing/boarding for a good cause.

The Wailers’ Vertical Challenge is a ski-a-thon that combines our love of winter sports with fundraising for The Unrecables, a 501(c)(3) charity and 100% volunteer-based organization, serving the recreational needs of people with disabilities. The Unrecables promote adaptive sports, and encourage people with disabilities to participate in sports, recreational, and social activities in their communities.

HOW IT WORKS: Each pledge is a dollar amount based on 1,000 vertical feet covered by our skiers/riders from 10 AM to 3 PM. Each skier/riders' (or team's) vertical feet will be tracked by an app.

For example, you pledge of $2 and the skier/rider (or team collectively) covers 10,000 feet during the vertical challenge, that results in a $20 payment.

NOTE: THE MAXIMUM VERTICAL FEET WILL BE CAPPED AT 20,000 for pledge purposes so, your commitment is locked in at no more than $donated x 20,000 vf.
