20 years of Ski Day

On Thursday, February 13, 2020, Spinal Cord Injury Ontario hosted our 20th Ski and Snowboard Day! We were excited to mark the twentieth iteration of our most popular and successful fundraising event and the day did not disappoint. It was a jam-packed, fun and active day, thanks to our dynamic community.
