The Toronto Ski Hawks

History

Back in 1969, a small group of blind people were invited, through the C.N.I.B., to try alpine skiing together with some recreational students from Centennial College. The experiment was so successful that after the ski season, they formed their own club. Named The Ski Hawks, it was the first such club for blind skiers in Canada.

The success of The Ski Hawks has been due to the great interest among the blind and visually impaired in outdoor winter recreational sports and the resulting companionship of others sharing this enjoyment of skiing.
