by Ignite Adaptive Sports
Ignite Adaptive Sports is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit located at the base of Eldora Mountain, 21 miles outside Boulder, Colorado — the only adaptive snowsport programme on the Front Range and the only one accessible by RTD public transit. Founded to ignite personal growth and independence in people with disabilities, Ignite has built a volunteer team of over 230 certified instructors serving more than 300 students each season.
Ignite offers instruction in downhill skiing, snowboarding, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, sit-skiing, and ski biking. Every lesson is 100% volunteer-led, and a scholarship programme ensures financial need is never a barrier. The organisation serves participants across all ability levels, from first-timers to competitive adaptive athletes. Ignite's $1.9 million purpose-built facility at Eldora opened in 2023, significantly expanding capacity.
Ignite serves individuals with autism, cerebral palsy, limb differences, paralysis, visual impairments, and PTSD. The programme welcomes participants of all ages and experience levels, with instruction adapted to each athlete's unique needs.
