Speaking of adaptive gyms...
If you live in the Phoenix, AZ area, or plan to visit the area, please come see
the brand new Virginia G. Piper Sports and Fitness Center for Persons with
Disabilities, affectionately nicknamed the 'SpoFit.'
http://disabilitysportscenter.com/
We just opened up this state-of-the-art facility which features: two
gymnasiums, running track, rock-climbing wall, adaptive weight room, accessible
locker and shower rooms, lap pool, therapy pool and spa. Other than the
Lakeshore Foundation in Birmingham, AL there's really nothing like it in the
U.S. We're hoping to be the spark that ignites the idea in other major cities.
For those of you who participate in organized wheelchair sports such as
basketball, power soccer and quad rugby, there is a good chance you'll be
playing in a tournament here eventually. If you come into Phoenix feel free to
contact me and I'll be happy to answer questions or show you around.
