One of Bo Derek’s passions has been giving back to our veterans.

"I remember I ran into the [former] secretary of veterans affairs, Anthony Principi, and he tells me about the rehabilitation events for disabled veterans," the now-66-year-old told Fox News Digital. "These are incredibly moving events. And yet they were having trouble going because some people, perhaps, maybe were uncomfortable - we’re talking about 400 people with all kinds of disabilities." Stephanie Nolasco covers entertainment at Foxnews.com.

"But when I went to my first Snowmass event, I was moved," she continued. "Just seeing 400 disabled veterans and the volunteers who were there… [The volunteers made] sure that they would offer them whatever they needed, whatever they wanted to do in winter sports, no matter their disability. Even if it required adapting some equipment, it didn’t matter, it could be done. That does something to you."

The National Disabled Veterans Winter Sports Clinic, which takes place in Snowmass Village, Colorado, encourages veterans to push their limits and discover their capabilities through a variety of winter sports.
