Oregon Adaptive Sports

Bend Magazine's The Circling Podcast with Adam Short

Twenty-four years ago, passionate members of the central Oregon ski community came together to provide on snow opportunities to members of the community with disabilities. Today, Oregon Adaptive Sports (OAS) is a premiere adaptive sports foundation in the Pacific Northwest providing a range of year-round programs.

Oregon Adaptive Sports envisions a day when everyone has the benefits of outdoor recreation, regardless of ability. They see Central Oregon as a year-round destination for adaptive sports with OAS as the leader in providing state-of-the-art equipment, professional instruction, staff and dedicated volunteers, resulting in top quality experiences for all participants.

On episode VII we sit down with OAS program director Leah Persichilli, long time instructor Jeremy Fox aka J.Fox and Bend local and one of the original OAS athletes Gabe Rousseau. It’s a great conversation.
