WINDHAM, N.Y. – The Adaptive Sports Foundation (ASF) will be hosting its two Multi-Sport Summer Camps in Windham for individuals with disabilities, the first occurring this weekend, August 16-18, and the second the following weekend, August 23-25.

The ASF’s Multi-Sport Summer Camps provide its campers with fun exercise opportunities at CD Lane Park and other establishments in the Windham area. Each three-day camp session has the same schedule of events (weather permitting), and each day runs from 9:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m. and lunch will take place at 11:30 a.m.

The first day of each camp will begin at CD Lane Park, where the participants will be dropped off and meet with ASF staff and volunteers. They will enjoy a morning hike around the park’s lake and through the wooded areas. After a good stretch of the legs to start the day, the group will then head to the soccer fields to practice some drills and play a game before breaking for lunch. Once everyone has eaten, the group will head over to Christman’s Windham House for an afternoon golf session on the driving range and putting green.

The campers will spend all of Saturday at CD Lane Park. They will arrive in the morning and head out onto the lake to go kayaking, pedal boating and swimming. After a few hours of fun in the water, the group will break for a brief lunch before participating in more park activities. In the afternoon, the campers will have the opportunity to ride bikes around the park or participate in team sports like basketball and wiffleball before they are picked up at the end of the day.

On the final day of the camps, the participants will meet at the ASF’s Gwen Allard Adaptive Sports Center. From there, the ASF shuttle bus will take them to nearby Prattsville to visit Heidi Ruehlmann’s Alpaca Farm. Frank Cabrera, a volunteer regularly seen at the ASF’s Adaptive Skateboard Camp, takes care of a herd of Alpacas owned by Ruehlmann and the two of them allow ASF campers to spend a morning feeding and interacting with the tranquil animals. The campers will then return to the ASF lodge for a barbecue lunch before departing.

Campers are expected to bring a bagged lunch and snacks with them, along with a bathing suit, a towel, appropriate footwear for various activities and any personal items needed.
