 | | | | It's that time of year For snowboarding, for Santa, for staying inside and baking cookies and listening to Mariah Carey. It's my first holiday season in Montrose, and to my surprise I've actually been enjoying it.
It's not that I hate the holidays, I just hate the cold. Which, fingers crossed, isn't so bad here. But I've loved walking down Main Street, each time seeing more and more storefronts decorated for the holiday season.
The next few weeks will be full of holiday activities, like this weekend's parade of lights, and on our end we'll keep talking to local business owners about where to pick up homemade holiday treats and Montrose-made gifts for everyone on your list.
It's also ski season, and a few nearby organizations are making sure the season is for everyone. Tomorrow's Outdoors page will feature the Adaptive Sports Center in Crested Butte, which offers (among other things) full day ski and snowboard lessons for people with mental and physical disabilities for just $95, rental included. I'm pretty sure that's less than a regular lift ticket.
On the other side of the Western Slope, we've written already about the Telluride Adaptive Sports Program, which also offers winter and summer programming, including individual ski and snowboard lessons, for people with disabilities.
So, if you're trying to get on the mountain, or know someone who is and could use these services, definitely look them up! I love highlighting what they do, especially with the Crested Butte program being so (rela) affordable for what it is.
Cheers,
Kylea
