Michigan Ski for Light

Welcome to Michigan Ski for Light Home Page.


Michigan Ski for Light is a nonprofit organization promoting cross-country skiing and other outdoor activities for the visually- and mobility-impaired.

The January 2009 event was another success. Lots of snow and a good number of new visually impaired participants. Thats always encouraging to know that the program will continue well into the future.

The fact that Michigan Ski for Light received a $7000.00 grant from the out door gear and clothing store, REI contributed to the large turn out this year.
