Mike Schultz, right, a U.S. Paralympic gold medalist in snowboarding, surprised nine young athletes with disabilities with new adaptive equipment. The program is sponsored by Disabled Sports USA, one of the nation’s largest winter sports festivals for people with disabilities. The week-long event includes skiing and snowboarding lessons.
