History

Disabled Sports Eastern Sierra (DSES) began life as Mammoth Adaptive Sports Foundation (MASF) founded in 2000 to fulfill needs of people with disabilities.

As this Foundation reached out supporting those with disabilities in the local area, it became apparent that the largest need was for a winter sports program for those with disabilities.

This need sparked the creation of the Disabled Sports Eastern Sierra (DSES) adaptive ski and snowboard program. In 2003 the MASF Board of Directos decided to officially and permanently change the name of the parent organization to Disabled Sports Eastern Sierra, retiring the name Mammoth Adaptive Sports Foundation. The vision of the organization remains the same.

In the summer of 2005 DSES initiated a summer program so that our program is now available year-round.
