Can't get enough of the switch-adapted duck catapult our team brought to the #SD71 #SpecialTrackMeet this year! There are so many ways to make things more accessible!

Outdoors in a field, with a track in the distance, a man points to something off to the right. Children stand around a table with him, some look at where he is pointing.
Children stand around an adapted outdoor toy. We can see it consists of PVC framing, a leaf blower and an All turn it Spinner. Some of the children hold pool noodles.
Two men and a woman smile for a selfie photo outdoors in a field with a track behind them.
A child in a wheelchair touches a switch on a table connected to a powerlink. Other people surround him watching.
Darren, Doug & Marie had such an awesome time at the 2nd annual #SD71 #SpecialTrackMeet!
