Accessibility Statement

Last updated: August 14, 2026

Salish Snow Sports is committed to making our website, salishsnowsports.com, and our program information as accessible as possible to people of all abilities.

Accessibility and inclusion are central to our mission. We want families throughout East Jefferson County to be able to find information about our program, understand how to participate, and communicate with us regardless of disability or the technology they use to access our website.

Web Accessibility

An accessible website allows people with disabilities to access information and navigate online content using tools such as screen readers, keyboard navigation, text enlargement, voice recognition software, and other assistive technologies.

We are continually working to improve the accessibility and usability of the Salish Snow Sports website and aim to follow generally recognized accessibility practices, including the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2, where reasonably possible.

Accessibility Efforts

As part of our ongoing efforts to make our website accessible, we work to:

Use clear and consistent page structures and headings
Provide alternative text for meaningful images when possible
Maintain readable text sizes and color contrast
Make important program information available in clear, straightforward language
Limit unnecessary motion or visual effects that may interfere with accessibility
Consider keyboard and screen-reader navigation when organizing website content
Make documents and other downloadable information accessible when reasonably possible
Provide alternative ways to obtain important program information if someone cannot access it through our website

Accessibility is an ongoing process, and our website may not be fully accessible in every circumstance or with every assistive technology.

Third-Party Websites and Services

Salish Snow Sports relies on several third-party organizations and online services to operate our program. Our website may link to services operated by organizations such as Stronger Towns, Stevens Pass, Vail Resorts/EpicPass, registration and payment providers, donation platforms, social media services, and other program partners.

We do not control the design or accessibility of these independent websites and services. Their content and accessibility features are governed by their respective organizations.

If you encounter an accessibility barrier while using a third-party service required for participation in Salish Snow Sports, please contact us. While we may not be able to modify the third-party platform, we will make reasonable efforts to help you access the information you need or identify an alternative way to complete the necessary program process.

Accessibility and Program Participation

Salish Snow Sports is committed to creating an inclusive and welcoming youth program.

Skiing and snowboarding, transportation to and from the mountain, and participation at a ski resort may involve physical environments and activities that present accessibility limitations. Some aspects of instruction, transportation, facilities, equipment, or mountain access are also provided or controlled by independent organizations.

Families who have questions about accessibility, accommodations, or a child’s ability to participate are encouraged to contact us before registration or before the start of the season. We will work with families and our program partners to understand individual needs and determine what reasonable accommodations may be available.

Need Information in Another Format?

If you have difficulty accessing information on our website, please contact us. We are happy to make reasonable efforts to provide program information in another format or assist you directly with accessing the information you need.

Ongoing Commitment

Salish Snow Sports is a small, community-based nonprofit program, and accessibility is an ongoing effort. As our program and website grow, we will continue working to identify barriers and improve access to our information and services.

Our goal is simple: to make it as easy as reasonably possible for families to learn about Salish Snow Sports, understand their options, and participate in our community.
