John's usual--
We've got a few fun activities coming up. On 6/21 our friends at the All Ports Yacht Club in Venetian Harbor will be sponsoring their annual Friday Boat Trip. This is a fun day where we all go out in small groups on individual APYC member boats for an hour on Sandusky Bay. Then they treat us to a great picnic lunch in their clubhouse. They even give us all swag bags to take back with us on our way out. It's a good time. Unfortunately this trip is not wheelchair accessible, so if someone uses a wheelchair and wants to get for a boat ride, we'll have to make that happen another day. We have resources to help people who use wheelchairs get out on the water, so make sure we know that you want to go.
We will also be sailing this summer with our friends at the Sandusky Sailing Club and Sandusky Junior Sailors-- so if sailing is more your speed-- let us know. In the past this group has run a great adaptive sailing program that has helped people in wheelchairs sail. The volunteer who led that aspect of the adaptive sailing program is back this year after being away for a few years, so fingers crossed!
CLI just launched our THRIVE in community employment program with special activities that are specifically for people who are holding down day jobs in the community. One of these is a "Thursday Date Night" option (but you have to invite your own date, it's not that kind of escort service). In all seriousness, it doesn't have to be a romantic date. It's just an opportunity for people to get out with 1 other friend. On Friday evening and during the day on Saturday, we're offering opportunities for small groups of friends to go to a sporting event, take in a movie, etc. If this sounds good to you, get in touch with Haven ASAP and reserve your spot.
CLI's first Cornhole tournament is coming up in a few weeks. I hope to see you join us on Friday, June 28th! Have a great week.CLI
John
