It also provides service-learning opportunities for students to not only volunteer their time, but also learn how to create and adapt programs for people with disabilities. This event is a free opportunity for people of ALL ages and ALL forms of disabilities to come together to learn and have fun.

Mission Statement

We believe in showing the importance of health and physical activity, increasing quality of life and providing learning opportunities while raising awareness for people living with disabilities in our community. We believe everyone should have the opportunity to realize a disability is not an inability. We believe in creating that moment, that instance of clarity to not just think anything is possible…. But to know it.
