Disabled Children, Adults Have Chance To Water Ski
Children and adults who use wheelchairs will have a chance to water ski, using special adaptive equipment, during a clinic July 7 at Saline Flats on Lake Palestine, organizers said.
It is being presented by the nonprofit group Texas Adaptive Aquatics and sponsored by High Performance Homes of Bullard.
“Over 10,000 disabled persons nationwide have experienced waterskiing and boating since TAA became involved, making the sport accessible,” Debbie Bryant, owner of High Performance Homes, said in a statement.
