Unlimited Play will focus on adaptive indoor and outdoor activities for people with spinal cord injury -including art, gaming, photography, birding, rowing, and more! This half day event brings together hands on demonstrations, creative experiences, community displays, and interactive sessions that showcase the many meaningful ways to engage in recreation. With opportunities to explore activities like birding, fencing, adaptive dance, gaming, and photography, attendees can find new activities, meet local organizations, and discover fresh pathways to wellness and expression. Throughout the day, exhibitors, presenters, and sponsors will offer resources, inspiration, and practical ideas for participating in accessible recreation across the region.
