Letter from the Director
Message from the Executive Director,
Welcome to the June edition of Wheel World News! This issue is packed full of good information and activities to participate in. We would love to see you all out in the community this month.
Our Spotlight Story this month is about our upcoming event: Mom's Break During Summer Break. This event poses an opportunity for moms to have open discussion about the unique rewards and challenges of parenting from a chair while the kids participate in supervised activities over at Ability360 Sports & Fitness Center. To read more about this event and to sign up, please visit pages 2-3. There are many summer activities happening within the community this month as well. To see all the current events happening this month, please visit pages 4-5.
This month for our "Consumer Corner" segment, we are highlighting Steve Zaccari. Be sure to check out pages 8-9 to read his personal story. We have a new section in our newsletter, "Professional Profile", where we will be highlighting a different professional that works within the SCI community. Robert Reed from Ability360 Sports & Fitness Center is our professional for June. Be sure to read how he contributes to the community on pages 10-11.
Our newsletter is for you, our community. We would love to hear how you think we could improve, change, or add to our newsletter. Are there topics you would like more information about? Are there activities you would like to know more about? What kind of stories do you enjoy reading about? Do you have an idea about a story we could cover? Would you like to share your personal story in our Consumer Corner? We are interested in anything you would like to share or comment on so please do not hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected].
Thank you to everyone who supports the Association throughout the year, we truly appreciate each and every one of you!
