The Rocks teams up with Adaptive Sports Partners

ASPNC crew at Cannon Mountain

It takes a lot of elves to spread Christmas cheer, and this year at The Rocks Estate we’re getting some holiday help from Adaptive Sports Partners of the North Country. ASPNC has been a fixture in our area since 2009, providing a variety of athletic and wellness activities for people with disabilities. Their friendly volunteers are on hand during busy holiday weekends at The Rocks, offering up seasonal merriment – and delicious treats, too!

Christmas tree hunting can inspire a big appetite, so the good folks from Adaptive Sports Partners are serving clam chowder, chili, hot dogs, veggie snacks, Clementine oranges, baked potatoes, and a delightful array of home-baked sweets, along with water, hot coffee and tea, and cocoa.

The proceeds from concession sales will go directly to offsetting the costs of the many exciting programs ASPNC offers to area residents through the year, from Nordic and alpine skiing to this year’s new adventure – sled hockey – in the winter, to gardening, mountain biking, hiking, and fishing in the warmer months, and year-round activities like swimming and power soccer.

With a mission of ensuring “the enrichment of the quality of life for people with disabilities through year-round opportunities for sport, recreation, and wellness,” and a goal of enhancing the personal development and self-esteem of participants, ASPNC makes sure participants are never excluded because of an inability to pay for programs. Fundraising is key to providing these programs and ensuring all who want to may participate.

So, bring your appetite when you visit The Rocks this season, and say hello to the elves from ASPNC. The food is delicious – and the holiday cheer comes at no extra cos!
