One of my passions is fitness, and it’s how I met my husband (Fire Up Chips). That has definitely rubbed off on our children, who participate in everything from gymnastics to running to drumming to swimming. And as much joy as I get out of watching them participate on the weekends, I feel guilty every second I’m at work, giving everything I have to help other children to have the opportunity to do the same.
Guys, I didn’t realize how many adaptive sports are in each state. I’m super excited. This is NOT a comprehensive list, because, I only had approximately 74 hours to dedicate to this post!
But seriously. Adaptive surfing in Hawaii? Check. Adaptive skiing and rock climbing in Colorado? Check. Scuba Diving? Duh. Whether you live in the area, or are looking for opportunities during your summer vacation, check out all the amazing inclusive activities for each state, adapted for all levels of ability.
I missed something? Comment below if you’ve got some more to add!
