🎿🤠 THANK YOU, Kids Ski Rodeo a Success! 🤠🎿

What an incredible day at the 2026 Kids Ski Rodeo!

We are so grateful for the participation, the smiles, the costumes, the courage, and the pure enthusiasm that filled Easy Street. From strong Olympic Ready Positions to precision stops and duck-walk determination, our young skiers showed up ready to shine. 🥇

This isn’t the kind of event we normally run as an adaptive organization; we are so glad we did. Bringing the broader youth ski community together for a morning focused on fundamentals, confidence, and fun turned out to be something really special. Watching kids challenge themselves, support each other, and celebrate their accomplishments reminded us exactly why we love being part of this mountain community.

To every participant, parent, volunteer, and supporter — thank you. You made this event more than a rodeo. You made it a celebration of community, courage, and joy on snow.

Leadville, you showed up in the best way. 💙

We’re already looking forward to doing it again…

See you in 2027! 🎉❄️
