Newry -
Lots of winter fun for disabled veterans at Sunday River in Newry over the weekend.
Maine Adaptive Sports and Recreation sponsored the 'Veterans No Boundaries' program.
Vets took part in alpine skiing, snowmobiling, and the biathlon, which combines cross-country skiing and target shooting.
Two time Olympic athlete Kristina Sebas-tean-ski was on hand to help.
"You get to fit right in and it is just wonderful when you come here and everyone else there is to support you," said Justin Galipeau, a disabled veteran at the event. "So, even with every other organization I am with here in Maine, we are on the same level, there is no segregation."
The Veterans No Boundaries program is a four-day event that continued Sunday with more downhill skiing at Sunday River.
