This edition of Wheel World News gives you a sneak peek into what to expect from AZSCIA in the next couple of months! We are excited to announce “Don’t Be A Victim!”- a self-defense class for individuals in a wheelchairs, taking place on August 5th. Be sure to sign up for the FREE class to save yourself a spot. Read more about this class along with other current events taking place this month on pages 4-5. On page 7, you can read about upcoming events happening in the fall, including The Miracle League of Arizona’s Adaptive Baseball game and Wheeling in Nature. Both of these events were hits last year, so if you didn’t participate, this is your year! Our series “Living Healthy with SCI” finally back!
