Join us at the 10th Annual Mid-West Ability Summit
The Midwest Ability Summit is a metro-wide ability expo for those with disabilities, including youth, adults, families, caregivers & professionals. Attendees will have an opportunity to explore booths that provide products & services to the disabled community. Their goal is to bring together persons with disabilities & the organizations, products, resources & programs to assist them with leading full & productive lives. We at the Jacomo Sailing Club fully support this cause. We have an Adaptive Sailing program and have worked with this organization in the past. We encourage our membership to attend and see how we can bring the joy of sailing into their lives.
