The keynote address entitled “Attitude and Gratitude” was presented by our fellow SCI John Chartier. John shared the journey of a family wedding anniversary vacation to Nassau; being struck by an unexpected wave; being rescued from drowning; suffering a complete paralysis; dealing with the physical and psychological aspects of his recovery; and now assisting others with their SCI journey. His engaging presentation touched the mind and heart of everyone in the room.
Participants also had the opportunity to do an art experience, designing their personal refrigerator magnet as a memento of the day. The day’s free program also included lunch/ social time providing opportunity to interact with others involved in the SCI community, be entertained with live music and be treated to an amazing performance presented by the professional dance ensemble “Dancing Wheels."
Now is a great opportunity to mark your calendar for September 25, 2020, and join us for next year’s SCI Forum.
