“I want to grow Inclusion and understanding of the leadership potential that people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) have.” Torben Schuffert
Gathering # 2 --> Keeping the momentum towards creating more awareness and inclusivity within our community for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
All ages and abilities are welcomed. Even though, as a small group, we may not be able to meet the needs of everyone to participate, anyone is welcomed to join us for social and snacks after. These events are not necessarily about the activity(s) being offered but rather the connections being made among us.
We have permission to use one of the groomed trails near the lodge for this event which will make this very user friendly for anyone on snowshoes.
This is a FREE event. Thank you BV Nordic Center for collaborating with the Shine Together mission.
Smithers Special Olympics has offered a few pairs of snow shoes for people to use. Please reach out to Torben and Sandra if you would like to borrow a pair. region7athleterep@gmail.com
