Adaptive Water Skiing for people with challenges! We did a lot of advanced training for our flanking skiers and other volunteers! The adaptive skiers that did attend some ski sessions in the morning improved their adaptive skiing skills immensely. We skied one skier at a time, sometimes for 2 hours. We maintained social distancing as best we could on land and in the boat(s).
All of us had a lot of fun and learned a lot practicing with adaptive skiing simulations on the boat. Each young volunteer (and some older ones) drove the boat while 3 people sat in the back of the boat. One acted as an adaptive skier and the other two were the flankers. A lead flanker was assigned.

The youngest of our volunteers enjoyed a range of life skill workshops, including: Cooking, Building with Wood, Painting, & Socially Growing! We cooked breakfast every day which included eggs, bacon, French toast, hash browns and more. We also cooked many pans of brownies, cookies from scratch and homemade ice cream! Bob, the founder of

Bob, the founder of OTE, taught us all how to smoke pork, chicken and mac n cheese. Delicious! The kids group, which consisted of 4-6 11-17 year olds, built 4 cornhole boards! That was pretty amazing! Then, they painted wooden signs and the cornhole boards with cool summer designs. It was a blast.
