USSA Deaf Skiers Committee correspondence and reports, 1969 - 1975
Scope and Contents
Bulk is records from the United States Ski Association (USSA) and one of its affiliate groups, the United States Eastern Amateur Ski Association (USEASA). Dr. Carmel worked with both groups to gain recognition and accommodation for deaf skiers, such as mandating that ski patrollers carry a pencil and pad so they could communicate with the deaf. He chaired a Deaf Skiers Committee as part of both the USSA and the USEASA. Also includes some material from other hearing ski interest groups.
