Miracles on the mountainside: four tennessee veterans to attend national winter sports clinic | va tennessee valley health care | veterans affairs

Nashville , TN — Four local VA Tennessee Valley Healthcare System Veterans will participate in the 39th National Disabled Veterans Winter Sports Clinic (NDVWSC), March 31 – April 5 in

Aspen-Snowmass, Colorado. The Veterans will take part in downhill skiing, sled hockey, and several other adaptive sports activities alongside approximately 400 fellow disabled Veterans,

supported by approximately 600 volunteers and 200 sponsors.  The five-day event, affectionately called Miracles on a Mountainside, offers participants adaptive sports therapy opportunities,

including skiing, sled hockey, scuba diving, snowmobiling, rock climbing, and other activities. For nearly four decades, the event has helped Veterans who live with physical disabilities and

wounds unseen overcome obstacles and challenge their perceived limitations.  To view content from the event, follow @Sports4Vets and @DAVHQ on X and Instagram, Sports4Vets and DAV on
