This exciting community event is especially designed to serve individuals in wheelchairs, including children, Iraq, Afghanistan Vietnam and other military Veterans (and their families). Non-wheelchair users with minor Traumatic Brain Injury, PTSD, blindness, deafness or debilitating illnesses are also welcome to push a wheelchair or join in the event.
Fueled with a hearty breakfast, we embark on this naturalist led hike through Point Mugu State Park.
The trail includes rocky terrain, slopes and mud or stream crossings in times of wet weather. These natural obstacles provide challenges and opportunities for team-work and trust building .
The event culminates at the beach with lunch and use of specialized beach wheelchairs.
All who participate will benefit from the physical challenge, social interaction and camaraderie offered from this unique outdoor experience.
NOTE: We do not have buses to transport participants anymore. Please make arrangements to get to and from the event on your own.
Though this event is free, please consider donating to help us keep this event going.
***Since MeetUp is just ONE way we are signing people up for this event, notification of confirmation from The Wilderness Institute is required before attendance is allowed.
