Join the Department of Conservation and Recreation’s (DCR) Universal Access Program (UAP) for a free, fun-filled day celebrating accessible outdoor recreation in Massachusetts state parks.
Family-friendly, accessible, and inclusive activities include: cycling with an assortment of adaptive cycles, adaptive pickleball, golf, face painting and kite decorating, sidewalk chalking, equipment demonstrations, bubble blowing, games, music, and much more. Find out about adaptive summer programs across the state!
Please pre-register, especially if you need an accommodation or would like to try adaptive equipment or go cycling. You can pre-register online, or by calling Teri at (413) 461-7126. When requesting accommodations, please allow at least two weeks (14 days) advance notice. Last minute requests will be accepted, but we may be unable to fulfill the request.
Volunteers are also welcome for help with face painting, cycling, hiking, adaptive games, refreshments, and other stations! To get involved, contact Mariah at [email protected] or (857) 289-4175.
