WHISTLER!!!


It's been a while since I made a post, partly because it's felt like summer and so I've been outside a lot, but also because I have been traveling a little bit.

A group of us took a trip to Buffalo, to take in a couple hockey games, spend some time with family, and attempt to energize the Sabres as they run into the playoffs.






Continuing with my skiing, had a wonderful opportunity to check out Whistler, and its awesome adaptive ski program. Spent a week out there, and three full days on the slopes, attempting to master the bunny hill. Near solo missions were accomplished. The photos below are from the Wednesday and the great sunny, groomed conditions we had. We also skied the Monday and Friday, but because of large snow falls the hill was not as friendly to my sit ski.

Whistler is quite the place and I would recommend it to everyone, just a tad on the pricey side!

We are also running a NHL playoff draft as a fundraiser to potentially purchase a sit ski, like the one pictured below! Deadline for entry is this Friday, if you would like to take part email me at joebanchy@hotmail.com
