Childrens Activities Night @ Institute for Human Performance

For the past 6 months members of the Syracuse Flyers have volunteered (it is so fun, I don't consider it volunteering...) their time at a childrens activities (adaptive sports) night which was established throught the combined efforts of Dr. Nienke Dosa and her staff (Upstate Medical), as well as, Dr. Tim Davis of Cortland State and his staff, and students.
Last night was the last in a series of a six month session. Although I know that these evenings allow the children the resources they need to build friendships, smile, and play; it has done an immense amount for me in strenghtening my passion to make sure there are resources in the CNY area in the future for programs such as this and others on a more consistent and available basis.
I had the opportunity last evening to speak with many parents about the vision of Move Along Inc., and the desire to build resources in athletic programs, as well as, arts programs in the future. There is both an overwhelming need, and a great attitude of support!!
I am developing a Facebook, Myspace, and LinkedIn site to post pictures of this event and many others to ensure others can view the joy these children obtain when having resources available to them. Please be sure to take the time to view these pages in the future....I will post the sites in less than a week!!
Once again, thanks to Dr. Dosa, and Dr. Davis and their team members for getting something truly remarkable started!!
