Virtual Event – May 15, 2021

Sponsor

Kick-off Spring right by staying healthy and active in your own backyard, while also supporting children and adults with developmental disabilities! Opportunities, Inc., works with children aged 6 weeks through adulthood by providing services specialized to meet the needs of those who qualify. 

The Opportunities, Inc. Paddle, Hike, Jog, or Bike is a unique virtual event that was developed for the safety of our participants, volunteers, staff, partners, and  community. Participants take their pick from a 3+ mile hike, 10 to 15-mile bike ride  or paddle at a local park, or jogging a 5k. All race packs include a custom race medal,  shirt, and race certificate. 

The monies raised from the virtual race will be dedicated to helping fund the cost of a multisensory environment for children in the Early Intervention Day Treatment Program. “Our multisensory environment will house two separate rooms for our day treatment children. This includes a room that will provide a calm relaxing and friendly environment, and a second room that provides a stimulating environment. Each room will be used to meet the individual needs of our students,” says Executive Director Sherry Young. 

The event is sponsored by Chick-fil-A Central Mall and The Sportsplex by Healthcare Express.
